    Bill has over 42 years of experience in the financial services industry. Bill spent his early years in the industry as a stockbroker, obtained his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification in 1986 and moved into management roles for several major brokerage firms. In 2000, Bill made a career decision to move away from management roles and return to what he enjoyed most, working with individual clients and their investment needs. Bill moved to UBS in 2012, after having been a highly successful Custom Portfolio Manager at Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley. “The combination of holding my CFP® certification and being recognized as a Senior Portfolio Manager in UBS’s Portfolio Management Program puts me in a rare position to truly understand and assist clients in appropriately managing their risk tolerance. By paying close attention to this, we believe that we can help our clients in constructing portfolios that can preserve and protect their investment monies when appropriate as well as grow these same monies when the markets return to a wealth accumulation mode”. Bill employs technical as well as fundamental research in his disciplined investment strategy. By doing this Bill feels strongly that the team has a unique approach that utilizes both of the major research themes that can cause movement in securities pricing.

    A graduate of Rowan University, Bill and his wife, Maggie, reside in Solebury, PA and have two grown sons. Bill is an avid golfer and cyclist.
