Tax Planning

Retirement

Inheritance

Widowed

At Oak Summit Wealth Management, I specialize in advanced tax planning, investment management, and comprehensive financial planning for retirees and those approaching retirement, widows and widowers, inheritors, and business owners. As a Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) Charterholder, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional, and IRS Enrolled Agent (EA), I bring investment, planning, and tax expertise together in one coordinated strategy designed to help clients grow and preserve their wealth while reducing unnecessary taxes over time.

Before founding Oak Summit, I worked with high-net-worth individuals and families at a $100B+ registered investment advisory firm and a $4B+ wealth management firm, helping clients navigate complex investment and financial planning decisions. Today, I bring that experience to a more personal, boutique planning relationship where financial planning, investment management, and tax strategy work together rather than in separate silos.

Additional Information

I’m a Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) Charterholder, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional, and IRS Enrolled Agent (EA) with more than a decade of experience helping clients build, preserve, and transfer wealth.

I’m the founder of Oak Summit Wealth Management, where I bring together financial planning, investment management, and proactive tax strategy in one coordinated approach. I work closely with retirees and those approaching retirement, widows and widowers, inheritors, business owners, and families navigating major financial decisions.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Economics from the University of California, Berkeley, where I continue to stay involved as an alumni ambassador.

In 2025 and 2026, I was named a 5-Star Financial Planner by InvestmentNews and a Rising Star Honoree by WealthManagement.com.

Outside of work, I live in San Diego with my wife, Susannah.

My goal is simple: to help you make wise financial decisions by bringing your investments, taxes, retirement planning, and long-term goals together into one clear strategy.
