About
The firm’s sole adviser provides ongoing portfolio management and financial planning to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, entrepreneurs, small business owners, charitable organizations, and other business entities. Alongside discretionary and non‑discretionary management common to independent advisers, the firm also offers public educational seminars and workshops.
Investment programs are built to each client’s stated goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance, drawing on fundamental analysis, long‑term purchase strategies and option writing (including covered and uncovered strategies) where appropriate, with periodic quarterly reviews. The firm can manage accounts both with discretionary authority and on a non‑discretionary basis, and it can oversee held‑away retirement plan accounts through a third‑party platform to avoid taking custody of client credentials.
What is distinctive is the combination of a very small client base with roughly $9.5 million in assets under management, a fee breakpoint practice that applies a single percentage to the entire portfolio rather than marginal tiering, and the provision of free public seminars. Supervision and compliance responsibilities rest with the sole adviser, and financial planning services are offered on an hourly basis.

We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
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.
