Our investment thesis is a little different from mainstream. We focus on income with growth which helps us empower our clients in the investment process.

In 2019 I joined the Chave Family Wealth Management Group where I have been working alongside my father Paul. Paul has over 30 years of experience navigating the financial markets in which he is bestowing those experiences to me. With my passion for the financial markets and Paul years of experience we work closely together to provide the best client experience possible.
Together we meet with families to understand their needs and tailor a custom solution for their financial goals. We strive to help clients learn and understand our team’s strategies to help them suceed in achieving their financial goals. In my spare time I like to travel with my wife Meaghan and spend my summers playing golf.

With over 20 years of experience in the industry, and over 17 years as  part of Chave Family Management Group as a Senior Wealth Associate, I provide full administrative support, customer service and help our clients in their everyday needs, through various stages of their lives. In my team, I am the go to person for regulatory and compliance matters. My most important values that I guide myself by are integrity, trust, and quality.

What I enjoy the most about my position is client contact and the relationships we create.

In my free time, I enjoy long distance running, going to the mountains, gardening, reading, cooking and spending time with my two sons.
