Most business owners have advisors. Few have a coordinated plan.
When personal, business, and estate planning happen in separate conversations, critical gaps go undetected — often until circumstances force a decision. Download the free checklist above to see where your planning stands across all three arenas.
I spent over two decades as a business owner before I ever became a financial advisor. That experience is the foundation of everything I do for my clients today.
I grew up in my family’s business — a company my grandfather started in 1946. For 21 years, that business was my career, my family’s livelihood, and our legacy. During that time, we faced what many family businesses face: growth, transition, and unexpected loss, including the sudden death of my father. We navigated it, and we ultimately sold the business successfully to an outside buyer in 1999. But I know firsthand how differently that story could have ended without the right planning in place.
That same year, I started my wealth management practice with one goal: to help other business owners address the challenges my own family had faced. I work alongside your estate attorney, CPA, insurance specialists, and other advisors to make sure your personal, business, and estate planning are all working toward the same outcome. Because for most owners, the business isn’t just an asset — it’s a legacy worth protecting.
