Experience

I began my career at UBS in Switzerland in 1979 working at several UBS branches before being accepted as a Management Trainee in New York in 1987. A year later I was offered a position in the San Francisco office. Since then I have been servicing both high net-worth individuals and institutional clients, successfully guiding them through major market corrections and four recessions. The average tenure of my clients is over 25 years.

For over two decades I have been educating my clients about the benefits of gold as an alternative asset class and portfolio diversifier. UBS is a leader in this area and many of my clients have benefitted from our expertise. Throughout my career my fundamental goals have been to offer the best possible service in the Swiss tradition of quality and excellence while drawing on the global resources of UBS.

I am FINRA registered and hold Series 7 and 63 securities licenses as well as insurance and variable annuity licenses. I am a graduate of the Swiss Commercial School in Horgen/Zurich, being fluent in German, English, French, Italian and Spanish. My wife and I live in Tiburon. The entire family enjoys spending time outdoors where I practice my lifelong passion in photography.

Upon graduating from the University of the Pacific with a degree in Economics, I entered the financial advising industry in my native Bay Area with the intent of helping influential individuals meet their financial goals and fulfill a lasting vision with their capital. Whether helping my select private wealth clientele (namely current/former corporate executives, business owners and founders) build out in-depth financial plans, or helping institutional stakeholders adhere to their respective mandates, sound guidance is my passion and purpose. My process is a direct product of my mentors; I don't hesitate to leverage my team’s 30 years of experience, nor the resources of the largest wealth manager in the world, to my advantage when complex situations arise. Throughout these years in the industry, I have adopted three tenants of what I see being the greatest attributes of any trusted advisor - commitment, accessibility and integrity, working every day to uphold these values.

As resident and active community member of San Francisco, I am a supporter of the fine arts, a member of the San Francisco historical society, music appreciator and fan of all things Bay Area sporting related (49ers, Giants and Warriors). In my free time, I enjoy golfing, boating and skiing.

Exceptional client service is my priority and it’s been at the forefront of every decision I’ve made since the beginning of my career in 2022 at the UBS Wealth Advice Center.  While there, I worked closely with clients to understand their financial goals and help them allocate their portfolios accordingly.  Today, as and member of the R72 Advisors Private Wealth practice, I help corporate employees and executives understand the nuances of their often complex equity compensation plans while maintaining a focus on long term financial planning, in turn, allowing me to better understand what is important to our clients and offer an appropriate solution tailored to their financial situation. 

I was born and raised in Northern California where I still enjoy fitness, playing golf, and cheering for the San Francisco 49ers, Giants and Sacramento Kings.

After graduating from the University of California, Santa Barbara with a B.A. in Economics and a focus in Technology Management in 2024, I joined the Corporate Services practice and Private Wealth Management practice. Building on my experience as a UBS Wealth Management intern, I leverage my strong foundation in client service and operational processes. I’m passionate about continuously deepening my industry knowledge and expanding my expertise to provide excellent service to our clients.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, snowboarding, playing tennis, and traveling abroad.
