Experience Makes all the difference

I'm a third generation Nevadan as well as a third generation UCLA alum. I've been raising four amazing kids the past decade. I've lived, worked, and travelled across the globe and this has given me a good sense of how geopolitical events can affect investments. My wife is a noted fashion photographer from New Zealand and Milan. My father managed large brokerage firm branch offices for decades, so I grew up in the financial services industry.
