About

DRS Financial Partners LLC is a single-advisor independent registered investment adviser serving individuals and high-net-worth individuals. The firm reports approximately $7.46 million in discretionary assets under management across about 25 client relationships and provides comprehensive financial planning, discretionary portfolio management, and tax return preparation services, including equity compensation and business-planning analyses.

The firm’s investment approach combines fundamental and cyclical analysis within a Modern Portfolio Theory framework, emphasizing strategic asset allocation with tactical adjustments and a mix of passive and active vehicles; it may also use third‑party model portfolios as part of client solutions. Accounts are managed on a discretionary basis, with periodic reviews and an emphasis on diversification across asset classes and investment strategies.

Distinctive aspects include the small, concentrated client base and an emphasis on higher-net-worth clients rather than broad retail market segments, as well as the in‑house offering of tax return preparation and detailed equity-compensation planning, services less commonly provided by solo independent advisers. The firm’s principal also maintains an external consulting role with Retire Sound, Inc. (dba Addition), allocating a substantial portion of their time to that activity, a material outside-business commitment prospective clients may want to consider.

DRS Financial Partners LLC

Hi! I'm Stanley, a fee-only financial planner based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I founded DRS Financial Partners to help equity-compensated tech professionals steer through the complexities of their equity compensation and ever-changing lives, committing to an objective approach and fiduciary standard. Fascinated with the stock market since I was young, I began my career at a boutique wealth management firm in SF and quickly discovered how rewarding it is to help people gain clarity around their finances and make decisions with confidence. Whether it's preparing for a liquidity event or starting a family, seven years of helping tech executives and early employees with their complex situations helped me appreciate just how important it is to build a solid financial foundation. During my time there, I earned the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation and CFA® charter, sat on the investment committee, and led the firm's financial planning efforts. Adopted from Okinawa as a baby, I grew up in Hawaii and fell in love with the Bay Area during a high school summer program. I graduated Cum Laude from Santa Clara University with a B.S. in Economics (Mathematical Economics concentration) and a Math minor. Outside of work, you can find me on one of the Bay Area's many beautiful hiking trails, unwinding with some video games, or keeping up with an F1 race weekend.

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.
