Your life. Your wealth. Your future.

Pursue what matters most

Understanding your life, your wealth and what you want to accomplish is at the core of our practice. We'll discuss your goals, the people who are most important in your life and your vision for the future. Then we'll help you organize your financial life into three strategies: Liquidity—to help provide cash flow for short-term expenses, Longevity—for longer-term needs and Legacy—for needs that go beyond your own.

Start the planning conversation

Life's an adventure. We can help you seize it.

Tell us the story of your life

Every successful family has a story. Maybe you took a risk and started a business at your kitchen table. Or you built your wealth through years of hard work and sacrifice. Perhaps your story is still being written.

We want to hear it.

Your life story guides our planning

On Brad’s office wall is a photo of the double-wide trailer in northern Michigan where he once lived with his parents and his older brother. To feed the family, Brad, his brother, and their father hunted and fished in the Michigan and Ontario wilderness, catching trout, pike and perch. Brad’s father became an award-winning fish taxidermist, enabling him to move his family from a cramped single-wide trailer to the double-wide. At night, everyone sat around the campfire, laughing. Brad considers this childhood a wonderful adventure. It taught him to listen closely to his clients’ life stories in order to uncover their priorities. Today, he strives not only to help his clients pursue their financial goals, but also to align those goals with their core values.

An Iraq War veteran, Brad served 12 years in the United States Air Force, cramming at night to earn an associate’s degree in dental sciences. Upon reading a book on personal finance, however, Brad became fascinated with investing and determined to forge a career in financial services. He earned a bachelor’s degree in business information management and his M.B.A. He also traveled the world, exploring diverse cultures.

Brad, his wife, Chrissy, and their two children, Madison and Luc, love to entertain at their home in Spokane at the foot of the mountains. The family enjoys visiting Brad’s parents at the peaceful Michigan lake house he bought them early in his financial services career. “We still sit around the campfire together and laugh about the old days,” Brad says, “telling the best stories you’d ever hear.”

Connecting you to the deep resources of UBS

By seeing the big picture, we provide access to the global platforms and the financial and intellectual strengths of UBS’s experts in Wealth Management, Asset Management and our Private and Investment Banks.

Business transition and succession planning

Our Philosophy

We do more than manage money.
We optimize potential.

We have decades of experience in portfolio management, but we’re also excellent at spotting talent. And by "talent," we mean people who know what they have and are willing to think creatively and resourcefully to express it in ways that not only surprise and delight themselves, but also can change the world.

We count those people among our most stellar clients—and also among the happiest people we’ve ever met. Because when you decide to leverage what you have to your highest purpose, your life takes on a new meaning.

Your life, wealth and future

How can we help you pursue your goals? Our advice focuses on three key strategies: Liquidity. Longevity. Legacy. This approach can help you explore, clarify and pursue your financial goals. Working together with you, we can help you plan for life today and beyond.

_{Time frames may vary. Strategies are subject to individual client goals, objectives and suitability. This approach is not a promise or guarantee that wealth, or any financial results, can or will be achieved. All investments involve the risk of loss, including the risk of loss of the entire investment.}
