PROCESS

Every client has their own unique set of needs and objectives. Brandon and his strategy team believe that the investment portfolio is but one of the financial needs deserving of attention. This level of detail and bespoke service is provided consistently at Merrill.

Brandon helps Merrill clients plan holistically for the long-term by adhering to a proven approach based on the Merrill Lynch Wealth Management Process:

1. Establish Clear Objectives

2. Evaluate & Define Strategy

3. Implement Recommendations

4. Review Progress & Refine Goals

Please feel free to reach out for an in-depth discussion surrounding this process. We look forward to hearing from you.
I follow the deep-seated Merrill tradition of participating in the communities we serve. This drives my interest in spending time volunteering with organizations in our community.

About Me
Philosophy

Communication is instrumental to managing life's challenges. That's why I work to engage you and your family in the financial decision-making process. Communicating openly with family members on the sometimes-difficult subject of wealth can be a challenge. I can help facilitate these discussions and offer personalized financial strategies designed to educate the younger generation about how assets may be invested.
