Nicholas Paige
Hi, my name is Nicholas "Nick" Paige, and I'm an Arizona-based financial advisor helping families and businesses build, protect, and pass on their wealth. My approach focuses on collaboration with clients to design personalized strategies around each client's goals, with tax-aware planning.
I was born and raised in Arizona and moved to Europe at age 16 to pursue a professional soccer career. During my time overseas, I lived in Spain, Italy, Germany, and Croatia. These experiences that taught me discipline, adaptability, and the value of building strong relationships.
I earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a concentration in Economics. While completing my undergraduate studies, I founded and operated a business consulting firm, working with small businesses and law firms.
Today, I enjoy working with families and business owners to help them navigate important life events and develop strategies aligned with their goals. Outside of work, I enjoy golfing, cycling, spending time outdoors, and still playing a little soccer.
From client service to digital innovation, Merrill consistently earned national and global recognition as a leader in the financial services industry.
