Wealth Manager

WealthGarden Financial Services

As a kid, weekend mornings meant spreading two different sections of the newspaper across the kitchen table: business and comics. That fascination with how the world works drew me to the world of investments and has driven my entire career. 


Solving problems by reading between the lines of what is shown versus what is said is at the heart of my ability. I see what people aren’t saying, spot the patterns others miss, understand the real question beneath the surface question, providing reassurance that we’re solving for real concerns and not the surface ones. 


I bring East Coast directness to West Coast wealth management, both technically sound and completely tailored. With a foundation in the San Francisco finance industry and nearly a decade of brick-and-mortar business ownership in Orange County, I combine an entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to solve complex financial problems. Now, the structure at Wealth Garden allows me to work in my clients’ best interests without a corporate filter. 


My first friends in California forgave the South Jersey accent I moved here with in 2000, and I’ve been tenaciously loyal to my people from one coast to another ever since. My tiniest people, my daughters Reece and Gwen, are the ones who taught me all of us really do have endless amounts of love to give.
