Alex Demetrio CFP® CEPA®

Senior Vice President–Wealth Management

Wealth Advisor

CA Ins Lic 0F41499

Growing up in New York City, the financial capital of the world, Alex always had a healthy curiosity about finance. In 2001, after helping to launch a startup, he decided to explore that curiosity and pursue a career in financial services. He started in the business at a technical analysis trading firm and then eventually decided to pursue a career in wealth management to help others properly manage their wealth.

Alex became a financial advisor in 2004 and earned the UBS Wealth Advisor designation in 2010. He is also a CFP® professional and a Certified Exit Planning Advisor®. Several years into building his advisory business at UBS in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, Alex was offered the opportunity to go into management. In 2011, he moved his business to Connecticut and took on a dual role as a Financial Advisor and a Branch Manager. At the end of 2022 he stepped aside from his branch management role, allowing him to focus solely on his clients.

Alex's varied experience as a Financial Advisor, Senior Portfolio Manager and Branch Manager has given him a deep understanding of client's financial needs. He is a member of the Jacobsen Buxton Demetrio Wealth Management team. The team has a true high net worth focus and they draw upon their depth of knowledge and experience in working with affluent individuals and families to provide thoughtful and comprehensive advice.
