My Approach to Your Wealth

"Your wealth should serve your life, not complicate it."

1

I believe in building genuine relationships, not transactions. When you work with me, you're not a portfolio number—you're a partner.

2

I operate as a fiduciary, which means your interests always come first. I'm legally and ethically bound to give you advice that serves your goals, not mine.

3

I take a holistic approach, coordinating your investments, tax strategy, estate plan, and insurance to work together toward your objectives.

4

I believe in transparency. You'll always know what you're paying, why we're recommending a strategy, and how your plan is performing.

What Our Clients Say

Real experiences from families we've had the privilege to serve.

"Michael helped us navigate early retirement with confidence. What could have been an overwhelming transition became a clear path forward. Seven years later, we're living exactly the life we planned—traveling, spending time with grandchildren, and finally relaxing without worrying about the numbers."
R

Robert & Linda Chen

Clients since 2015

"After selling my medical practice, I needed someone who understood the complexity of my situation. Michael's team handled everything—from the sale proceeds to restructuring my entire financial picture. For the first time in thirty years, I feel truly organized. I only wish I'd found him sooner."
D

Dr. Patricia Morrison

Client since 2018

"Three generations of our family work with Michael. That says everything about the trust we have in his guidance. He knows our story, our values, and what matters to us beyond the numbers. When my parents passed, he helped us through that transition with grace and care."
T

The Yamamoto Family

Multi-generational clients

"I was skeptical about working with a financial advisor. I'd managed my own investments for decades. But as retirement approached, I realized I needed someone to think through all the pieces I'd been ignoring—taxes, estate planning, healthcare. Michael's calm, methodical approach won me over. Best decision I've made."
