“I’ve been in practice for 34 years. I am the only financial advisor in the tri-state area that is a Certified Tax and Business Planning Advisor. I’m also one of the only advisors in the entire region that offers a virtual family office practice - that means we offer every facet of financial planning including tax, estate, wealth management, asset protection, legacy planning, retirement, planning, etc. And, as the Managing Director for all of these financial services, I have systems in place that allow me to keep my finger on the pulse of every plan we put in place so that I can ensure predictable success. Teamwork makes the dream work!”
