About the Team
A top-ranked private wealth advisory team at Rockefeller Capital Management serving HNW and UHNW families, business owners, and retirement plan sponsors. The team combines the intimacy and accountability of a boutique advisory practice with the breadth of Rockefeller’s Global Family Office platform, delivering comprehensive wealth planning, investment management, tax-aware strategy, next-generation education, philanthropic advisory, and family office solutions.
- Family office mindset: We look beyond portfolios to the full balance sheet, coordinating planning around family goals, estate structures, business interests, philanthropy, taxes, liquidity, and legacy.
- Deep bench of specialized credentials: Team members have earned advanced designations across private wealth, investment management, alternatives, exit planning, retirement plans, and financial planning.
- Tax-aware investment discipline: The team leads with thoughtful tax minimization, including custom portfolio construction, direct/custom indexing where appropriate, ongoing tax-loss harvesting, and careful asset-location considerations.
- Access and connectivity: Clients benefit from Rockefeller’s open-architecture platform, alternative investment opportunities, private office resources, lifestyle advisory, philanthropic advisory, and access to specialists across the broader Rockefeller network.
- High-touch, team-based execution: Advisors, planning, investments, service, and operations work together closely so clients experience one coordinated team rather than disconnected functions.
- Generational perspective: The team is intentional about educating and engaging spouses, children, and future decision-makers so wealth can support family values across generations.
