Clients I specialize in: Attorneys and accountants, Business owners, Retirees

As a Private Wealth Advisor, I help my clients define their goals and understand their options. Then I partner with them to create tailored wealth management strategies. My clients' wealth plans include the right mix of investment management, trust and estate services, and private banking to meet their unique needs and preferences.

I've worked in the banking and financial services industry since 2006. I help clients succeed by taking the time to understand their unique needs, and directing teams of specialists — often working closely with other client advisors, such as attorneys and accountants — to provide services that help clients work toward their goals.

I live in Sarasota, and serve clients in the Sarasota and West Florida communities. I enjoy spending time with my wife, Barbie, my sons, Cooper and Miller, and my daughter, Palmer. I also enjoy playing competitive tennis — a sport I enjoyed and excelled in, long before playing varsity tennis for Penn State University. I extend my passion of the game to coach youth and adult tennis at Lakewood National Country Club. I also enjoy being outside as much as possible, playing golf, boating, fishing, watersports and running, including competing in marathons. I am active in my community, involved in youth and college sports and serve as a board advisory member for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Suncoast, Manatee County. I am currently pursuing my Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation to better assist my clients and their families.

FAQ

The role of a financial advisor can go beyond investment planning. An advisor can also provide guidance for key moments throughout your life. Perhaps your finances have gotten more complex, and you’d like help creating or adjusting your wealth plan. You may be worried how market changes are affecting your investments. Or you’re experiencing a major life event, such as:

  • Getting married or divorced
  • Having a child
  • Starting a new career
  • Receiving an inheritance
  • Buying a house
  • Nearing retirement

An advisor can help you objectively assess where you are financially and how to prepare for the future as you work toward your goals.

Your advisor will ask about your goals and priorities – where you’re at today, financially, and where you'd like to go. But the main topic of conversation will be whatever’s on your mind. You can discuss how you and your advisor will work together, what you can expect from your advisor, any costs if you decide to move forward, and next steps. You’ll have plenty of time to ask questions, to help you decide if the relationship is the right fit.

No, your initial consultation is free.

We’ll confirm with you what materials, such as recent bank and financial statements, may be helpful for understanding your financial picture. But it’s your choice what to bring. To help you decide – and to ensure you get the most out of the conversation with your advisor – consider the following before the meeting:

  • What are your most important financial goals?
  • What concerns you about your finances?
  • Did you recently experience a major life event?

We’re happy to meet with you virtually or in person. It’s up to you.
