As a Managing Partner of Allaire Wealth Management with 20 years of experience in the financial services industry, I focus on building a personalized investment strategy for my clients while incorporating their goals and aspirations. Depending on their stage in life whether they are in the wealth building stage of their career or in their retirement stage, my approach is to remove the emotional connection so they can make better decisions as we both focus on long term disciplined growth.
When my clients transition from wealth building to retirement, the investment management and portfolio construction process transitions as well. Although each client has their own strategy, the focus on preservation of capital, and income supplementation are the main objectives. This process helps my clients fulfill their journey while enjoying their years in retirement. Helping to review that the plan is on track, is part of my every day activity in keeping my clients goals on track.
A graduate, from New Jersey Institute of Technology majoring in civil engineering / construction management, I recognized my career path for life would be working in the Northeast on Heavy Highway/Bridge and Tunneling projects. However, I always had a passion for the financial markets, as I would always check the financial news and overseas markets in the early mornings. A career change was considered. This passion lead me to an investment firm called AG Edwards back in 1999.
While studying at NJIT, I simultaneously served in the US Marine Corps Reserve for 6 years, stationed with the 6th MT Reserve Battalion located in Red Bank, NJ. I’m proud to have served my country and concurrently able to earn my degree.
Critical thinking and communication skills, I developed as an engineer are among the greatest assets I bring to Allaire Wealth Management, along with accountability, honesty, trustworthiness, and hard work. These are among many attributes you may expect from a Marine, Semper Fidelis.
I hold the Series 7, Series 63, Series 31, and Series 24 registrations, and insurance licenses.
I enjoy road cycling and I have accomplished many long rides of over 100 miles. My wife, Lori and I are proud parents of two children, Kyle and Rachael, both currently attend the University of Rhode Island. We live in Ocean County, NJ and together we enjoy outdoor activities such as skiing, biking, golfing and boating.
