Two ways to work together. Both get all of me.
Some clients want a partner across every corner of their financial life. Others have their plan and simply want their investments managed with discipline. I'll tell you plainly what each includes, and help you figure out which one you actually need.
◆ P A T H O N E
Complete Wealth Management
Comprehensive planning and investment management, working as one. This is for anyone who wants a professional in their corner. Whether that means working toward a single goal or coordinating a complex financial life with a business, real estate, equity comp, a family to provide for, and an exit on the horizon.
Retirement & income design
When you can step back, what it takes to get there, and how your wealth turns into reliable income when you do.
Tax strategy
Coordinating with your CPA, I assist with strategizing everything from potential tax deductions to entity structure, retirement plan design, and donor-advised funds for low-basis stock.
Business owner planning
Reinvest vs. diversify, solo 401(k)s, employing your kids, valuing what you've built, and one day, exiting on your terms.
Real estate analysis
Residential or commercial, I use my personal experience to run the numbers the way I run them on my own properties, before you commit.
Legacy & estate coordination
Working alongside your attorney so what you've built transfers the way you intend, including the giving you care about.
Investment management
Disciplined, low-cost portfolios built around the money you can't afford to get wrong — included, not extra.
Full-service clients meet with me quarterly, or on a schedule that feels good all around, and reach me directly whenever something comes up: a contract, an offer, a decision that can't wait. I’m the person you call.

Investment Management Only
For people who feel settled in their plan and simply want their portfolio managed with skill and discipline, all at a lower fee that reflects the narrower scope. We meet periodically, but at least annually, to review performance, fees, and anything in your life that's changed, and I make sure your investments still match your plan. What this path doesn't include is the deep ongoing work involving tax strategy, estate coordination, business and financial planning. I'd rather tell you that here than surprise you later.
Investment Philosophy:
Mostly low-cost ETFs where markets are efficient, hands-on management where it pays to be. Diversification across the US, international, emerging markets, fixed income and across market cap ranges within each. Individual stocks only in small, deliberate doses. The goal is simple: keep fees low, stay disciplined, and never gamble with the money that funds your life.

I've built and managed every client portfolio myself for my entire advising career. I’ve helped clients navigate through the fastest bear market in history, a global pandemic, a year when stocks and bonds fell together, the sharpest rate-hike cycle in four decades, and every panic headline in between.
I've also spent those years designing retirement income for people actively living on their portfolios, where the plan has to hold up in real time, not just on paper.

Call me, and I’ll handle it from there.
Wealth at this level touches accountants, attorneys, lenders, and insurance, and someone has to make sure everybody’s on the same page. That's me. If you don't have those professionals yet, I'll connect you with people I trust.
I lead the conversations with your CPA and attorney
I translate the jargon and sit in the meetings with you
I keep every strategy aligned with the whole picture
Your accounts are held at Charles Schwab, with advisory services through Harbour Investments. There's institutional strength behind a personal practice.
I keep my practice intentionally small.
That's what makes this level of attention possible, and it means I'm selective about fit. You should be too. The right advisor relationship lasts decades; it's worth a conversation to know whether this is it.
Not sure which path fits?
That's exactly what the first conversation is for.
