About
The firm serves individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and small businesses, providing personalized financial planning and investment management. It also operates an affiliated income tax–preparation practice and performs tax work separately from advisory engagements.
The advisor offers tailored, modular planning and can deliver advice on an hourly, fixed‑fee or ongoing AUM basis, with clients able to choose discretionary or non‑discretionary portfolio management. Investment work typically follows a core‑and‑satellite approach using no‑ or low‑load mutual funds and ETFs as the core, with periodic (generally quarterly) reviews and customized implementation as client objectives change.
As a solo, fee‑only independent practice with about 31 clients and roughly $6.1 million in assets under management, the firm does not accept commissions. Its combination of investment advisory services and an affiliated tax‑preparation operation (including tax‑preparer registration among its staff) is a relatively uncommon feature for firms in this category and may be relevant to clients seeking integrated tax and planning coordination.

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.
