Planning Specialties
I am the co-founder and investment advisor for North River Wealth Advisors. In the nearly 20 years I have worked as an investment consultant, my greatest reward is being a trusted advisor and building lifelong relationships with our clients.
We help individuals and families align their finances with their values, with a focus on your long-term purpose. Our process combines clear, straightforward advice with personalized strategies for investing, retirement planning, tax optimization, and cash flow management.
We believe in transparency, proactive communication, and always acting in your best interest...the way everyone should operate!
Additional Information
I am incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to serve our clients and be a part of their financial journey. My primary objective is to listen to our clients and develop a custom financial plan that best meets their needs. When we see our clients achieve their goals and we can make their lives easier along the way, that is how we define success.
My academic journey includes an undergraduate degree in Finance and Marketing from the University of Pittsburgh, an MBA from Carnegie Mellon's Tepper School of Business, and a certificate in Financial Planning from Boston University. I am also a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional.
In the community, I love to work with students and children to make a positive impact in their life. I am actively involved in youth ministry at Victory Family Church, serve on the Board of the Pittsburgh Youth Golf Foundation, mentor college students, and coach my children's youth sports teams.
My wife, Laura, and I have three young children that keep us busy. Our family lives in the north hills of Pittsburgh and attends Victory Family Church. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, golfing, and cheering on my Pitt Panthers (H2P!).
