In my free time, you’ll find me spending time with my family and friends, but I especially love spending time with my grandchildren.

The inclusion of a wealth manager on the FIVE STAR Wealth Manager list should not be construed as an endorsement of the wealth manager by Five Star Professional or magazine.
**Honorees of the 1999, 40 under 40, were selected by Crain’s editorial staff based on their career accomplishments, impact in their field and contributions to their community. Most candidates were nominated by peers or colleagues, but some where chosen by the newsroom.
