As a financial advisor with Raymond James, I focus on understanding what matters most to each client before developing personalized investment strategies. By aligning your goals with a thoughtful, long-term approach, I aim to provide clarity and confidence in every financial decision.

Supported by the client-first philosophy of Raymond James and a dedicated team, I help individuals and families navigate key priorities such as education planning, tax-efficient investing, and retirement preparation.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Finance from Bentley University and an MBA from the University of Massachusetts Boston.

I live in Norfolk, Massachusetts with my wife, Allary, and our two daughters, Saxin and Ilex. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, particularly through outdoor activities like hiking and kayaking, as well as golfing.

I am committed to making a positive impact and look forward to helping clients pursue their financial goals with confidence.

My legal practice is focused on real estate law. Whether residential or commercial, I represent buyers, sellers and lenders in the purchase, sale and refinance of real property. I also regularly work with commercial landlords and tenants in the negotiation of leases as well as developers and investors in the creation of condominiums. Headquartered in Newton, we have offices throughout the Commonwealth.

Risman is a full-service Property & Casualty agency, and I spend most of my time working with commercial real estate owners, construction firms, and hospitality businesses. That said, we work with clients of all sizes and across plenty of industries, so if you or someone you know ever has an insurance question, don't hesitate to reach out. Happy to be a resource.

I am a residential realtor, assisting home buyers and sellers all over the Greater Boston and Metro West areas.

At Prime Time, I work directly with clients on assessing and guiding their building and renovation plans, from setting up Mass Save assessments for utility rebates and electrification through solar and heat pumps, to coordinating with architects and developers on permitting, timelines, and costs, to working alongside clients and their insurance companies on commercial roof replacements. Rather than bringing in a patchwork of separate contractors, our clients work with one accountable team from start to finish, whether it's a single home or multiple commercial properties, with many of those relationships continuing well beyond the original project.
