Our Team

In 1995, Financial Advisor, Paul Madden, and Private Client Assistant Liz Gunnip united to work together for the benefit of their clients. 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.
