My Team
I began my career in 1982 as a Commodity Research Analyst at Shearson Lehman Brothers. I next served as the Futures Trading Strategist for Advest, Inc. before joining M&T Bank as an Executive Associate, where I traded foreign exchange and also authored a biweekly commentary on capital markets. After trading Foreign Futures Options for a Commodities Fund, I became a Foreign Exchange Strategist for Chase Manhattan Bank. I subsequently joined Prudential Securities (later Wachovia Securities LLC) as a Financial Advisor, rising to Sales Manager of the flagship branch on Park Avenue in New York City. In 2005, I relocated my business to Morgan Stanley in Hartford, CT. I joined Janney's Glastonbury office in 2013, where I served as Satellite Branch Manager.
I have earned both a BA in Economics from Franklin & Marshall College, and an MBA in Finance from the Stern School of Business at New York University. I have been appointed Adjunct Assistant Professor of Financial Management at the NYU School of Continuing & Professional Studies, where I have lectured on Applied Technical Analysis since 1999. I have successfully completed the Certification for Long-Term Care (CLTC), Certification for Financial Planner™(CFP®) professional, and I have also earned the Accredited Wealth Management Advisor (AWMA®) Certification. I have been appointed by the OIC (the Options Industry Council) to their Advisor Leadership Council.
I have been married to my wife, Shari, since 1995 and we are the proud parents of our child, Zane. We have resided in Glastonbury, CT since 2004. My interests include collecting and listening to classic rock music, attending film exhibitions, concerts and professional sporting events, and exploring new technologies.
