About
The firm is an independent, fee-only registered investment adviser operating as a single-advisor practice that serves individual and high‑net‑worth clients with discretionary investment management and tailored financial consulting. It provides ongoing portfolio construction and supervision as well as time-limited consulting engagements.
The advisor’s investment process is primarily long‑term focused but blends fundamental and technical analysis to build diversified portfolios, mainly using exchange‑listed equities, ETFs and mutual funds, while at times including OTC securities, individual fixed‑income and, occasionally, fee‑based no‑load variable annuities. Accounts are managed on a discretionary basis with periodic rebalancing and client‑directed investment restrictions available.
What is distinctive about the firm is its very small scale—managing roughly $1.3 million for five clients—which is atypical for independent RIAs and indicates a highly individualized practice model; the firm also offers hourly and fixed‑fee consulting options. The sole advisor holds an advanced finance degree, maintains an institutional custody relationship that provides third‑party technology and support, and operates under a written Code of Ethics addressing personal trading and conflicts.

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.
