About

Hi, I’m Ethan, a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and co-founder of Bridgewater Advisory Group LLC. My passion is helping people align their financial decisions with their personal goals and dreams. At Bridgewater, we focus on empowering you to find the joy possible in every moment by creating financial plans that provide the clarity and confidence to live the life you’ve earned.

Our approach is rooted in collaboration. We take the time to understand what matters most to you—your hopes, dreams, and goals—and work alongside you to develop a financial strategy that reflects the life you envision. By helping you step back from the busyness of life, we guide you to think intentionally about your priorities and move forward with a plan that brings meaning, joy, and peace of mind.

We specialize in retirement distribution planning, tax planning, and healthy aging support. Our goal is to help you maximize the potential of your assets so you can fully embrace a life that sparks joy. At the same time, we work to help you avoid costly tax mistakes and develop a healthy aging plan that ensures you get the most out of your retirement—both financially and personally.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
