Let me help you grow more than wealth

My investment philosophy

The key to my investment philosophy is income. I believe in a balanced approach in building a portfolio. The fixed income component can be allocated to certificates of deposit, corporate bonds, or tax-free municipal bonds. The growth component is placed in quality blue chip dividend growth stocks of both U.S. and global companies. I believe companies that generate free cash flow after all expenses are in the best position to expand their business and increase their dividends. This portfolio construction permits clients to receive a steady flow of income and the potential for capital growth to keep up with today’s ever increasing expenses. In addition to providing balanced investment portfolios, I specialize in IRAs, retirement plans, gifting strategies, and financial plans.
