I began my career in financial services as a banker at Hudson United Bank in 1999. After earning my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER TM designation in 2005, I searched out a more robust platform where I could better service my clients. It was then that I joined Smith Barney, which has since merged with Morgan Stanley. As a Financial Advisor, my process begins with you. I specialize in helping individuals manage life’s transitions. Whether planning for retirement or adjusting to a loss stemming from death or divorce, I help guide my clients through the complex issues that surround their financial and investment decisions.I graduated from the University of Michigan in 1989 and I am still passionately devoted to my alma mater. I regularly visit high schools and college fairs to talk about the University and I return to Ann Arbor whenever possible. I have been a member of Saint Ann’s Parish for 15 years and my family is active in that community. My wife, Elisabeth, and I are the gushing parents of a boy who provides me with all the joy a father could want, and a healthy dose of humility as well.In my spare time I enjoy reading fiction and American history, golfing and exercise. Of course, no pass time is as enjoyable as playing with my son.This information is intended for use only by residents of CT, DC, DE, FL, HI, MD, MI, NC, NJ, NY, PA, SC, TX, VAPlease contact me by e-mail david.mackinnon@wfafinet.com or by phone 267-392-5189.
