Senior Vice President–Wealth Management
Insight grounded in experience
Having built his wealth management practice from the ground up, Ben has a solid understanding of the needs and goals of the individuals he serves. He's walked with his clients through both the high points and challenges in their lives. As a Financial Advisor and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER TM (CFP®), Ben understands the human element in working with his clients. He is not your typical CFP professional. While he delivers strategic thinking and numbers-based analysis, Ben's focus is on people and relationships. He enjoys connecting his tactical expertise with the human side of wealth management—learning what matters to his clients, what makes them worry, what brings them joy. He is a born teacher and his approach is always one of collaboration and education.
Though only in his early-fifties, Ben already has more than twenty-seven years of experience at the firm. This means that he offers clients the expertise of a seasoned advisor while having many years ahead of him to work with his clients throughout their retirement and golden years.
