We believe that every client is unique, and their portfolio should be as well. Our comprehensive Financial Plan is the foundation for building a customized portfolio that is reflective of your goals and can be accommodating for life’s changing circumstances.
We also “eat our own cooking” and believe that all chosen investments by our Investment Committee (Tom, Deb, Lindsay and Pete) should be in our portfolios – not just yours. This aligns us with you, which we stand behind and believe is a fair expectation for you to have of your Advisors. You should also know that we will shop the world for the best in class investments.
At The Wooding Group, there is no such thing as a typical client – each relationship is unique in its own way and we strive to personalize our service to meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
I provide independent financial advice to ensure that every financial plan I prepare for a client is based on unbiased research.
I value a client’s trust above everything else and once a client makes a decision to work with me, I continually work hard to deserve their trust.
My primary goal is to ensure that all key aspects of each client’s financial plan are addressed in a manner consistent with professional financial planning practices.
Combined with my dedication to my clients, my long term experience in financial planning allows me to provide unparalleled expertise when helping my client to increase their wealth, reduce their risks and lower their taxes.
