I have lived my whole life in Delaware County, first raised in Newtown Square with my parents and 2 older sisters. I graduated from Devon Preparatory school, with much appreciation for a good Catholic school education. Then I graduated from Villanova University with a degree in Sociology & Business. I broke my leg in March 2001, but I was still able to get back on my feet in time join my classmates at graduation two months later in May. For 2 years, I worked for a family owned local brokerage firm, supporting most of the sales reps in the office. I joined my family firm in May 2003, where I am currently a practicing CPA and a holder of the CFP® designation. I am currently the managing partner, but Id be nowhere without the help of our staff, Bernadette, Lorraine, Betsy & Michael. My education, credentials, experience and staff give me the ability to integrate clients financial goals with smart investment and tax planning. I currently live in Wayne with my wife and 3 kids. The most challenging thing Ive done was a 30 day live-in program for students of Aikido, a Japanese martial art. I spent the month of July 2004 in Chicago, living and training with other like-minded Americans and Europeans, and eventually earning my black belt in July 2006, after 7 years of training.\

About Palmerston Group Advisors, LLC

Palmerston Group Advisors, a firm best known for its Margin of Safety discipline, built its strategy only after carefully studying the best in the business. Consider: 1. Few fund managers have genuinely market-beating records of ten or more years. 2. Most of this elite group uses a version of Margin of Safety, the skill of buying assets when "on sale" at a deep discount to their true value. Most excel in bear markets. 3. Few advisors strategically focus on these top managers or their investment ideas when creating client portfolios. Nor do many independent firms focus on these managers when offering allocation advice. In contrast, Palmerston sees these top managers as a huge asset for our clients. We start with what works best, and thus use Margin of Safety for all clients. For client portfolios, we use the ideas and often the (no-load) funds of managers with proven, profitable records.
