Blair began his career with Merrill in 1996 as a regional loan officer in Jacksonville, Florida. He then moved to Cleveland, Ohio with Merrill Lynch Wealth Management to work as a Financial Advisor in 1997. His focus is on delivering a comprehensive approach to managing wealth that begins with listening to a client’s needs and helping to ensure every strategy is grounded in understanding what each client wants to achieve. Blair provides access to the investment insights of Merrill and banking convenience of Bank of America to help address the various aspects of clients’ financial lives.

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.
