| Most successful people don’t need more financial information — they need a partner who brings clarity, structure, and discipline to their wealth so they can stay focused on what they do best. That’s where I come in. I help business owners, professionals/executives, and multigenerational families simplify their financial lives and make smarter long‑term decisions with their wealth. Most of my clients don’t need the money today — they need tax‑efficiency, accountability, and a system that keeps their plan on track through market cycles, tax changes, and life events. My role isn’t just to build a plan. It’s to maintain it, monitor it, and adjust it, the same way a great coach supports a professional athlete. Even top performers need consistent guidance, refinement, and strategic perspective — and that’s the ongoing partnership I provide for the families I serve. I also bring a multigenerational lens, helping ensure children and grandchildren receive the same level of clarity, stewardship, and guidance. If you’re successful but feel like your financial life could be more coordinated, tax‑efficient, or intentional — let’s talk. The first conversation is simply a chance to see whether having a long‑term financial coach in your corner would make your life easier. Graduate of Loyola High School (’01) and the University of Southern California (’05). Based in Manhattan Beach with my wife, Julia, and our two daughters. |
