Over a decade-plus career in wealth management, John has become intimately familiar with the opportunities and challenges faced by high-net-worth clients. Before his current role, he was a Financial Strategist at Equitable Advisors, offering investment approaches that addressed changing economic environments. Now at J.P.

One of John's core priorities is to spend quality time with the people he values most. He and his wife, Maddy, reside in Ridgefield, Connecticut, with their baby boy, John Richard. They like to catch up on the weekends with family and lifelong friends. In the colder months, he enjoys the sun in Longboat Key, Florida.
