    Michael Crotty clearly understands the intricacies of Multi-Generation Family Financial Consulting. He grew up under the guidance of his father, himself a Financial Advisor at Merrill Lynch. Michael learned the importance of consulting to families, rather than just their wealth. While raised in a financial family, Michael officially began his financial career 30 years ago at Fidelity Investments. His efforts were rewarded with a Vice President title, one of the youngest at the firm. Michael joined his father at Merrill Lynch in 1998, taking over the leadership of the Crotty Group in 2005. For the last 18 years, Mike, a Senior Vice President at Morgan Stanley and now here at UBS, has helped clients set and achieve their financial goals through proper planning solutions and investment strategies.

    Michael earned a B. A. in Economics from Dartmouth College, with undergraduate work at Oxford University. He has attended investment management classes at Harvard University and the Financial Leadership Program at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

    Mike lives in Lafayette, Colorado with his wife and three children, three dogs and a cat. Together they enjoy the beauty of the Rocky Mountains and summers at the New Jersey Shore. A former collegiate athlete, Mike enjoys any competitive game, especially basketball where he wins more often than not. He’s also very adept at falling off surf boards in the summer and crossing ski tips in the winter. He is an avid reader and loves spending time with his family and friends.

    He is active with the Dartmouth Alumni Association and the Christian Brothers Academy Alumni Association.

          As a research strategist, John uses technical analysis and a comprehensive, detailed approach to provide value for our clients. He has found that using UBS Wealth Way allows him to better understand clients' needs, goals, and risk tolerances.

          John served in the U.S. Marine Corps before obtaining his B.A. in Business Administration from Belmont University. His passion for finance and helping others achieve their financial goals led him to move from Nashville, TN to Boulder, CO and join the Polner Wealth Management Group in November 2014. 

          John is an outdoor enthusiast. He enjoys skiing, rafting, hiking, and camping with his wife Emily and their daughters Ella James and Elizabeth. John and Emily successfully completed their first sprint-distance triathlon in June 2018 and are looking forward to their next adventure.
