About

Michael is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ with 10 years of experience in wealth management, committed to delivering fiduciary advice with the highest level of care. After hearing about the subpar experiences family members and friends had with financial advisors, Michael dedicated his career to providing a client experience focused on transparency, trust, and personal connection.

He joined Farther to deliver on this mission — offering comprehensive, innovative solutions while maintaining a personalized approach to financial planning. Before joining Farther in 2023, Michael was a financial planner at Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management, where he worked on one of the nation’s top-performing teams. He has delivered hundreds of financial plans, helping clients navigate complex tax, estate, and retirement strategies.

Michael has also served on nonprofit boards and lives in Santa Clarita with his wife, son, and dog. An avid skier, snowboarder, golfer, and pickleball player, he enjoys traveling and sharing adventures with his family.
