About
Highwind Wealth Management is a fee-only, registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management, ongoing wealth management, and project-based financial planning to individual clients, including high-net-worth individuals. The firm also offers tax return preparation and related tax services as part of its practice.
The firm constructs portfolios using asset-allocation principles aligned with modern portfolio theory and employs both passive and active strategies, drawing on fundamental and technical analysis as appropriate. Investment authority is discretionary within client-imposed limits, and the adviser explicitly considers tax efficiency and can implement socially responsible investment options when requested.
What distinguishes the firm among peers is its small scale — a single-advisor practice managing roughly $23 million for a few dozen clients — combined with a principal who holds both CFP and Enrolled Agent credentials and who provides tax-preparation and IRS-representation services in-house. The firm also manages held-away assets under the same advisory relationship and has disclosed specific procedures for handling and charging for those assets, and the principal maintains a limited outside consulting role developing a wealth platform for freelancers.

Not sure where to start?
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.
