      Michael (Mike) understands the intricacies of Multi-Generation Family Financial Consulting. He grew up under the guidance of his father who was a Financial Advisor at Merrill Lynch, learning the importance of consulting to families, rather than just their wealth. Mike officially began his financial career in 1994 at Fidelity Investments. He then joined his father at Merrill Lynch in 1998, taking over the leadership of the Crotty Group in 2005. Mike worked at Morgan Stanley starting in 2009, then joined UBS in 2021. He enjoys helping clients set and achieve their financial goals through proper planning solutions and investment strategies.

      Mike 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, 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. More recently, Mike is coaching middle school boys basketball and he is the girl’s varsity high school tennis coach for his daughter’s team. 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.
