Testimonials
Having worked at multiple bulge bracket banks, I’ve seen how big financial institutions manage your money.
Don't get me wrong, they have many advantages. But one disadvantage is that you can get lost in the abyss: you get inserted into a pre-determined model and off you go.
At Stonewater Financial, we build and manage custom financial plans that suit each individual's unique situation. This plan is not just about what money goes where. It's a roadmap for what to do in volatile markets, how to respond to changes in personal circumstances, and what kind of legacy you want to leave.
Transparency is our first language and we pride ourselves in nurturing indelible relationships with our clients.
Whether you have a question about a tax implication, what assets to buy and when, where to find a good tax attorney, or if you can afford a bigger house - we'll be here to advise you.

Unshakable Financial Planning in Turbulent Times
Don't let market volatility dictate your financial future. Craft a resilient plan that can ride the waves and safeguard what you’ve worked tirelessly to earn.

At the very least, one conversation with a wealth advisor can boost your confidence in your existing plan. At the very best, they can grow your assets and protect your financial future.

Our Approach
At Stonewater, my approach to wealth management is rooted in pragmatism and personalization. I don't chase the allure of high-risk, high-reward scenarios. Instead, I focus on capturing consistent gains while diligently mitigating excessive risks.
As I often say, 'I'm okay not hitting homeruns, as long as I'm protecting the downside.'
This philosophy proved its worth last year when our strategies effectively shielded our clients from significant market downturns.
I believe in tailoring each investment profile to the individual, taking the time to understand their unique risk appetites through in-depth conversations.
It's essential to remember that numbers, like '50%', might seem abstract on paper, but the real-world implications of, say, a $500k investment halving, are profound and tangible.
While every client has financial objectives, I've found that navigating the emotional journey of wealth management is often the most challenging aspect. It's worth noting: if you miss the 10 biggest days of the market, your performance will undoubtedly suffer.
But by protecting yourself from the market's worst days, you're safeguarding your investments. The market is unpredictable, and no one has a 'crystal ball.' I've seen many miss out on market rallies, with some even anticipating corrections.
However, my belief is in making proactive adjustments to ensure not only the preservation of our clients' wealth but its steady growth as well.
Navigating an emotional journey first and foremost
