About Us
Philosophy

We begin our work with a thorough plan. Before we make any recommendations, we take the time to really understand you and your situation—your assets and liabilities, but also your aspirations, concerns, cash-flow needs, and family dynamics. The more we know, the more we can help. Our planning efforts are led by DJ Milligan, a deeply credentialed Advisor who has extensive experience in pre-retirement and pre-liquidity-event planning.

We offer a clear process to support your intentions. When you engage our help, you will witness the high-performing nature of our team. We are dedicated to delivering a preeminent client experience characterized by attentiveness to your needs and an intensive service ethic. Nick Brown, our Financial Advisor, manages our relationship-management and trading efforts, demonstrating systematic organization and diligent follow-through.
