Are you trying to figure out what to do with the money you have coming in?
In nearly a decade of working as a financial advisor, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients in many different career fields and across generational lines.
However, the one commonality in the people across the table is that they are driven. They have mastered what it takes to be successful in their job and their life, and they have the income to show for it.
Unfortunately, having money is only one part of the equation.
You need to know what to do with it to be truly successful, and that’s where I can help.
Let’s create a game plan for your money.
What you can expect
You have very acute financial needs and require an objective and transparent approach to your financial goals and concerns. I believe the only way to offer this level of service is through trust and transparency.
I have structured my practice in a way that allows me to spend time getting to know you and your family, so I may deliver customized strategies to suit your needs.
Sharon and I value our business relationship with you. We appreciate your wisdom and expertise as well as the way you communicate with us, your attention to detail, and the way you do business. We are very lucky to have you to guide us, Luke! —PHIL A. & DR. SHARON A. 5428232/DOFU 2-2023 |
