Throughout Pete's 20+ year career in wealth management, he has been a results-driven manager, an entrusted financial advisor, and a visionary. His impact is evident in the success of the UBS South Shore office, the growth of his own practice, and the strength of his relationships.

After his start at Merrill Lynch, Pete moved his practice to UBS and was tasked to build a new South Shore office. As branch manager, Pete personally recruited over 50 of the best and the brightest Financial Advisors and attracted $5 billion in assets to the new office within eight years. As the branch grew, Pete created a distinctive culture in line with his personal values that made it one of the best places to work and still remains today.

During that time, concurrent with his management responsibilities, Pete also founded Hingham Street Partners, the extension of his advisory practice, by assembling a team of hand-picked portfolio managers, advisors and relationship managers and by growing advisory portfolio assets to more than $2 billion. Hingham Street Partners advises high net worth families on all aspects of their lives, manages money for institutional investors, and partners with more than 100 UBS Financial Advisors worldwide. Although Pete and his team are highly sought after, his devotion to and friendship with his clients and their families is unparalleled. He forms a bond with his long-standing and multi-generational clients that provides the support, the advice and the means to achieve their personal and financial goals.

Pete is a graduate of Merrimack College and holds an M.B.A with honors from Sacred Heart University. He is a former member of the UBS Branch Manager Advisory Council to Senior Management, UBS Banking Council and UBS’ Technology Council. Although Pete lives and breathes Hingham Street Partners, his family comes first. He loves spending time with his wife Teri and their three children.

Paul Sapiro joined Hingham Street Partners in 2019. He brings with him over 27 years of experience in the financial services industry – Paul has worked as a financial advisor, portfolio manager, branch manager, financial analyst and business planner.  At his core, though, Paul is an experienced and diligent advisor who prides himself on developing deep relationships with his clients and leveraging the intellectual capital of UBS to solve complex problems and provide straightforward, yet elegant, holistic solutions. 

The common thread throughout Paul's career at UBS, Merrill Lynch, Smith Barney and even the motion picture industry has been comprehensive analysis and financial planning.  Paul's varied experience gives him a unique perspective and ability to relate to and help his clients, whether they are C-suite executives, business owners, retirees or young families.

Tim joined Hingham Street Partners in 2019, establishing the team's Pennsylvania presence.  He has been a financial advisor since 1997 and has built his practice on the belief that by planning for life's unexpected (and expected) events, one can achieve their goals and mitigate much of life's stress.  This belief was formed at an early age when Tim's family experienced first-hand the toll that unexpected and unplanned for life events could have on a family.  As a result, Tim bases his advising around a comprehensive financial plan.  He believes the planning process is critical to understand not only what is important to clients, but also what scares them.  From there he develops solutions for all aspects of his client's present and future financial well-being and in doing so, he gives clients more structure and control over their finances, and more broadly, their life.

Tim attracts a wide range of clients who seek an experienced and caring advisor to be their financial advocate – from corporate executives to business owners to successful retirees and their families.  Tim helps clients navigate life events such as job changes, death of a loved one, sickness, disability, inheritance, educational funding, marriage, divorce, the sale of a business and the transition to retirement.

Tim has his B.A. from The School of Commerce and Finance at Villanova University, where he played football.  He also has his Series 7, 63, and 65 licenses and his Health and Life Insurance certification in the state of Pennsylvania.  Tim earned the prestigious UBS Wealth Advisor Designation in 2019 and is proud to be a mentor to veterans transitioning from military careers to the civilian workforce as part of the UBS Veteran's Network.

Tim and his wife Christa live in West Chester, Pennsylvania with their four children Finn, Sean, Brody and Ryan.  In his free time, Tim enjoys spending time with his family, coaching his children's youth sports teams, traveling and surfing.
