Bluepoint Wealth Advisors

For over 10 years, Jason has been helping clients achieve their financial goals through transparent advice and client education. Prior to establishing Bluepoint Wealth Advisors, Jason spent nearly 6 years with The Vanguard Group in Scottsdale, AZ. Originally inspired by his grandmother’s adolescent hardships, he’s always been encouraged to help others find financial clarity. “My grandmother, who was a huge influence on my life, was a teenage girl during the Great Depression. Because she witnessed such financial hardship, she learned at a young age the importance of financial stability, and remained relatively frugal through most of her life. She instilled these values on my father, a financial advisor himself, who began educating me at a young age through our many road trips. In fact, the earliest lesson I recall was about mutual funds, and how I could buy a fund that contains Toys-R-Us, rather than buying the toy itself. What was initially a desire to learn more about my father’s job, quickly became valuable knowledge I knew could be used to help others. In 2013, I moved away from my friends and family, not knowing anyone in Arizona, to pursue a career with Vanguard. Given the indisputable morals behind Vanguard’s reputation, I could not think of a better company to begin my career, and to further enforce how success is achieved by putting client’s priorities ahead of one’s own.” Jason now looks forward to bringing that industry leading experience, and scaling it down to provide a more personalized relationship with each of his clients.

Marrick Wealth

Most of my clients have already done the hard part. They’ve built successful careers or businesses and created meaningful wealth through years of focus and discipline. But once the dust settles, a new question usually comes up: how do we protect what we’ve built and make sure it truly supports our family, both now and in the future? That’s where my work begins. I help families bring order, strategy, and intention to their financial lives. It’s not just about investments or markets; it’s about aligning wealth with purpose. The goal is to simplify complexity, preserve what matters, and give clients the confidence that everything is working together in the right direction. At marrick wealth, we lead with tax strategy because that’s where so much long-term value is created. Every dollar saved in taxes is another dollar that can compound, buy freedom, or fund your family’s next chapter. Whether it’s structuring a liquidity event, managing concentrated stock, or coordinating gifting and estate plans, we focus on the after-tax outcome that helps you keep more of what you’ve earned. Our clients typically have between $2 million and $20 million in investable assets and value a relationship that feels more like a partnership than a transaction. We collaborate closely with their accountants, attorneys, and other advisors to make sure every piece of their financial life fits together. I co-founded marrick wealth to build something different: a boutique practice grounded in transparency, tax-smart strategy, and meaningful relationships. To me, wealth isn’t about accumulating more; it’s about creating options, protecting your time, and making sure the people and experiences that matter most always come first. That’s what our firm is about, for your family and for mine.
