Our Team
The Holowinski Wealth Advisory Group (formerly Smith Holowinski Wealth Advisory Group) was formed when Financial Advisors Vars Smith, now retired, and Jason Holowinski decided to unite their many years of experience to work for the benefit of clients. Those years include two long term secular bear markets on either side of the historic 17 year secular bull market of the '80' and '90's. No needs are more important than your own. We pride ourselves in making your needs and goals, our own. We don't simply work for you. We work with you to understand who you are as an individual and as an investor. Our mission is to help you to define your financial objectives, and then use that knowledge to develop — together — a plan that is tailored to fit your unique needs and preferences, and is in your best interest. We’re proud to offer comprehensive financial planning resources, providing you access to education, advice, planning, and consultation.

What We Do
No matter where you are in life – we’re here for you through every step of your financial journey.
