The firm provides ongoing, personalized investment advisory services to individuals, individual retirement plans, trusts and estates, and business entities, offering portfolio management and financial planning tailored to each client’s objectives. It operates as a sole proprietor serving a small client base and manages client accounts held with an independent custodian.

Client accounts are managed primarily on a non‑discretionary basis, so the firm makes recommendations but requires client approval before executing trades; accounts are reviewed at least quarterly and monitored continuously. Investment selection blends fundamental analysis — including discounted cash flow valuation and independent analyst projections — with technical analysis, and emphasizes long‑term planning and disciplined asset allocation.

What distinguishes the firm from many peers is its inclusion of corporate or business clients and its predominantly non‑discretionary management model, both of which are relatively uncommon among independent advisers. The firm’s principal is also separately licensed to sell life and health insurance and spends a small portion of time on insurance activities, receiving commissions for such sales — a disclosed conflict of interest clients should consider.
