Jose Alvarez is the founding advisor at Harvest Horizon Wealth Strategies, a fiduciary, fee‑only Registered Investment Adviser proudly veteran‑owned and based in Amery, Wisconsin. Born and raised in Wisconsin, Jose served ten years in the U.S. Army as a paratrooper and infantryman, including multiple combat deployments. In 2025, he founded the firm to break away from the brokerage world and bring structure, independence, and real-life discipline to his client's financial planning needs and lives. Harvest Horizon Wealth is structured to work with people of many different wealth backgrounds. From those who've built a very high level of net worth to those inheriting that wealth. From those who are still building their wealth to those who are expanding or starting to plan their exit from their business. Harvest Horizon Wealth Strategies strategically tailors its service - and cost - to account for the life stage, complexity, needs, and expectations of its clients. Outside of service, Jose is a husband, father, and beef rancher- rooted in Midwestern values and community. His approach combines military leadership, financial expertise, and a deep, down-to-earth connection with business, land, and legacy planning. Jose works closely with family wealth holders, wealth accumulators, ag-related business owners, and municipal reps to design customized plans that prioritize clarity today and prosperity tomorrow.
