I attained a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration amapo College of New Jersey. My wife and I are lifelong residents of Bergen County.  We have 3 children – a daughter and a set of boy/girl twins. I myself am an identical twin.

 

I enjoy all four seasons of the year, skiing, the beach, traveling, day trips, puzzles, reminiscing about playing soccer for Hoboken Soccer Club, watching Army football at West Point, attending local college basketball games, attending and volunteering at ZION Lutheran Church in Westwood and spending time with my family.

 

MY APPROACH

 

I utilize a consultative team-based approach that weighs, measures and tests financial strategies which focuses on reducing risk, income taxes, fees and debt.  This in turn, increases cash-flow and maximizes results.  As I like to say, “I’m only as good as someone will let me be”.

 

I look forward to talking with you.
