Our Team

Private Vista’s diverse team spans multiple generations and offers clients many decades of collective experience and wisdom. We are a forward-looking team striving to provide industry leading wealth management - one that implements our knowledge of the past along with what we continue to learn in an ever-changing world. As a strategic partner with Hightower Advisors, we pair institutional resources with our boutique client experience to provide the evolved experience – financial planning and wealth management that help clients live enriched lives!

As our firm continues to grow - and as we welcome new members to the team - we continue to instill in them the values that have made Private Vista a success (see our 30 Fundamentals). The team that we’re building and the relationships we’ve formed with our clients help ensure Private Vista will be a firm on the forefront of planning for decades to come.
