He specializes in providing in depth financial planning and advice on all personal finance issues ranging from investments and estate planning to 401(k) and 529 plans. Dan believes in providing a “hands on” approach to financial guidance and truly cares about making clients’ dreams a reality.

Dan is passionate about three things in life: investments, golf, and family. Dan spent many years working in the investment industry as an equity analyst and banker. He was inspired to become an independent advisor and help individuals secure a successful financial future when he realized that his experience in the institutional investment world provided him a unique insight that many traditional advisors who come from a sales background lack. He has found that golf is a great way to connect with many of his clients and an opportunity for him to share how he can help with their financial goals. When he’s not helping clients plan for the future or on the golf course, he enjoys spending time with his three children.

Dan earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Cornell University in 1995 and a Master of Business Administration degree from the Owen School at Vanderbilt University in 1999. In addition, he currently holds FINRA Series 7 and 66 licenses.
