For nearly three decades, He has helped Southern California families plan for complex financial goals — building retirement income, protecting what they’ve earned, managing taxes, and passing on what matters to the people they love.

Since 1997, Jon has worked with hundreds of individuals, families, and business owners to build and execute comprehensive retirement income plans. I’ve guided clients through two major economic downturns, and those experiences shaped the cornerstone of my practice: preserving capital comes first. Growth matters, but in retirement, what you keep matters more.

His approach is holistic. He looks at the financial house from every angle — wealth management, retirement income, tax planning, Medicare and IRMAA exposure, Social Security timing, and legacy — because these pieces don’t work in isolation, and neither should your plan. Trust review and trust planning are a core part of that work: he regularly helps families make sure their trusts still reflect their wishes, their assets, and current law — not the circumstances of a decade ago. And as an IRMAA Certified Planner, Jon pays particular attention to a cost most retirees never see coming: Medicare premium surcharges that can quietly drain tens of thousands from a retirement over time.

Jon is a graduate of UCLA and began his career at Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, followed by Citi Personal Wealth Management and NettWorth Financial Group, before founding his own firm. That path — from Wall Street institutions to independent practice — was deliberate. Independence means his recommendations answer to people’s goals, not a product shelf.

Away from the office, Jon is a husband and father of three. His wife, an attorney, and I built our family the same way he helps clients build their retirements: with hard work, discipline, and a long view. Watching their kids grow into their own success is a daily reminder of why this work matters — a well-built plan isn’t just about them. It’s about everyone who comes after them.

Whether they’re just beginning to think about retirement or need a second opinion on an existing plan, He’ll take the time to understand their unique situation and give them straight answers.
