Additional Information
My wife and I moved to Charleston from Chicago in 2005. Still a die-hard Cub fan-ouch. I spent many years in Chicago as a CPA, helping businesses and their owners grow and prosper. My son Brett and I founded DWM Financial Group in 2000 to go the next step with business owners and other individuals. Our goal: to provide proactive, fee-only wealth management services to help our clients protect and enhance their net worth and legacy. I'm passionate about helping people and adding value. I am also Treasurer and board member of Lowcountry Orphan Relief, which provides clothing to 3,000 orphans each year, and a board member of the Estate Planning Council of Charleston.
