My primary focus is to simplify the complexities created by wealth. As a fee-only Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), we operate as a fiduciary on behalf of our clients. Guided by the personal and financial goals of the client, we develop a customized wealth plan incorporating aspects such as estate and trust planning, tax planning, business succession planning and philanthropic planning. Once the plan is constructed, we design a tailored investment portfolio. Depending on the needs of the client, we select from a variety of internally and externally managed strategies spanning both traditional and alternative asset classes, some of which are only available at Freestone.

As an Advisor in the Milwaukee office, my focus was on Financial Planning and investment management. Taking a holistic approach to wealth management, I was able to assist clients with a variety of planning and investment related needs, including retirement, education and business succession planning, as well as investment management. I was also a member of the firm's Financial Planning Committee, which created and maintained standardized processes for financial planning relationships, as well as provided Advisors with best practices within the realm of financial planning.

I assisted an individual Financial Advisor and a team of two Financial Advisors in managing their books of business, including trades, preparation of financial plans using NaviPlan software, preparation of performance reports, reviews, and proposals. I also worked directly with clients to gather necessary paperwork, process requests and answer questions regarding their accounts, and assisted with seminars and marketing efforts.

I worked closely with Branch Managers, Regional Directors, and Sales Management to recruit top talent to the firm, including planning home office visits for Financial Advisors and Financial Advisor Associates in the Midwest and Central Regions, reviewing of CRDs, background checks, business model profiles, and compliance notes. I then gathered interview feedback to share with the Regional Directors and Branch Managers, and worked closely with the Compliance and Legal departments to vet out any issues that arose as part of the CRD or background review. I also worked closely with the Products & Services teams to ensure a smooth transfer of the Financial Advisor’s book of business prior to them joining Baird.
