In 1977 I began my investment career and 5 years later, in 1982, my dad and I formed our firm. Our desire in establishing our firm was to offer clients a private firm that would be able to provide independent, objective financial advice, opposed to the large financial firms that were focusing more on the sale of financial products than providing financial advice. Today, almost 40 years later, we are more convinced than ever of the importance for clients to establish a long-term relationship with a trusted financial advisor who is in the position to be able to offer independent, objective advice that is focused on meeting their personal financial needs, goals and concerns. To better assist our clients in meeting their financial needs, I entered the College for Financial Planning study program, and in 1987 I successfully completed their Certified Financial Planner program, and was awarded the CFP designation.
Our firm has been serving clients through financial planning and investment management for over 40 years. We take pride in building long-term relationships with our clients, that have often led to us having the opportunity to advise their children and even grandchildren. We understand that there is more to life than money, but financial security provides the opportunity and freedom to be able to pursue the things that are of importance to you. Our desire is to be able to play a part in helping our clients pursue those things that give purpose and meaning to their lives. Our Planning Services include: Financial Planning Investment and Portfolio Management Retirement Planning Estate Planning Gifting and Charitable Planning
