Our History
Three decades of
serving families.
We opened our doors in Oneonta in 1991 with a simple goal: provide honest financial guidance to families throughout Otsego, Delaware, and Broome Counties. Over three decades, we’ve seen clients through multiple market cycles, economic shifts, and every life transition you can imagine.
What started as a one-person practice has grown into a three-advisor team now serving more than 800 families as of January 2026. Our clients stretch from Cooperstown to Sidney and beyond, with relationships that span across 35 states. But our roots remain firmly planted here in upstate New York.
The work has changed over the years, offering different challenges as new technologies and strategies evolve. But our approach hasn’t. We still believe the best financial plans come from honest conversations, not sales pitches.
