I am Wolf's Dad and Karen's husband. Professionally, I am a Managing Partner and Private Wealth Advisor, with more than 23 years of expertise in financial and wealth planning. Prior to forming OWL Private Wealth Advisors, I was a First Vice President of Wealth Management at UBS where I served not only as a Wealth Advisor but also in a leadership role for the Michigan Market. I am a graduate of the Eli Broad College of Business at Michigan State University and have completed post graduate coursework at The American College, Oakland University, The College for Financial Planning and most recently, The University of Chicago- Booth School of Business. I regularly conducts educational seminars about retirement planning and investing for the employees and retirees of multiple Fortune 500 companies. Additionally, I was featured in the July 2013 Building Wealth in Southeast Michigan section of Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine.
When not in the office, I enjoy spending time with Karen and Wolf - skiing, playing golf & cheering on the Michigan State Spartans.

To make Wealthtender free for readers, we earn a nominal monthly fee from financial advisors and firms in exchange for marketing services (including being featured on this profile page), subject to terms of use. This compensation creates a natural conflict of interest when we favor their promotion over others. Wealthtender is not a client of these advisors or firms. Testimonials may not be representative of other clients’ experiences and do not guarantee future performance or success.
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
