Experience

Makes all the difference

William Stonhaus

Senior Vice President–Wealth Management

Financial Advisor

William has over 35 years of experience working closely with institutional and high net worth clients. He began his career in institutional consulting with EF Hutton in 1980 and eventually transitioned his business to private wealth management with Merrill Lynch in 1995.

As an institutional consultant, William worked with many Fortune 500 companies to provide pension plan consulting and corporate cash management. While consulting these large organizations, many C-Suite executives asked William to manage their personal investments. He realized that CEOs, executives, and entrepreneurs and their families needed the same level of service, disciplined process and valuable perspective for their personal wealth management as his existing clients at the corporate level. He enjoyed providing thoughtful guidance to individuals and families, and with the help of his partner, Brent Folland, eventually transitioned his focus to private wealth management.

William and his team joined UBS in 2008 and continue to work with corporate executives, entrepreneurs, and affluent individuals and families in the Bay Area. He and his team have fostered long term relationships with their clients by taking the time to understand every unique situation, manage emotions, and coach clients to follow their financial plan.

William has been recognized for successful relationship management and has earned some of the most prestigious awards in wealth management: Merrill Lynch Circle of Excellence, Prudential Securities President's Council, and Wachovia Securities Premier Advisor Award. He also holds his Series 7 and 63 securities licenses.

Brent Folland

Senior Vice President–Wealth Management

Financial Advisor

Brent has over 22 years of experience providing personal wealth management to corporate executives, entrepreneurs and affluent individuals and families. He began his career at Merrill Lynch in 1994 and joined UBS in 2008.

Brent joined William Stonhaus' team in 1994 and was instrumental in transitioning the business from institutional consulting to private wealth management. Experience and research taught him that many investors ignore their financial goals and let emotions influence important financial decisions. He has found that creating long term financial plans and coaching clients through behavioral challenges is the greatest value he can provide as a Financial Advisor.

Brent enjoys meeting clients and their families, helping them set and achieve financial goals and providing ongoing education. He earned the Premier Advisor Award with Wachovia Securities and holds his Series 7 and 63 securities licenses.
