Extensive wealth management experience Thomas’ (Tom) love of investing began in fifth grade, when his parents encouraged him to meet with their stock broker. On the broker’s advice, Tom bought his first stock, Standard Oil of California which he actively monitored every day. Over time, Tom created his first portfolio of stocks. After graduating from Stanford University and Harvard Business School, Tom honed his investment experience through telecom and internet stock analysis and exploring alternative investments.
He also began managing his parent’s retirement money, his friends and other family members’ money and the non-investment aspects of his parents’ lives – ranging from financial planning, tax planning, insurance, trust and estate planning and healthcare.
Tom found it gratifying to be able to positively impact people’s lives through effective investment and wealth management services.
Tom’s professional career also flourished, including experience at major Wall Street firms including Bear Stearns and Merrill Lynch, and Management Consultants, McKinsey & Company. Tom was repeatedly elected to the Institutional Investor All-Star Team and named by the Wall Street Journal as a Home-Run Hitter for his stock picking record.
