In his client-facing role, Cliff is notably focused on conveying an attentive level of service to help ensure his clients' needs are addressed through high-quality, tax-efficient portfolios that also encompass legacy planning. He serves as a sounding board for his clients to broach ideas and goes the extra mile to implement best practices for managing significant assets.

In a career in financial services spanning more than a decade, Cliff spent the first half working as a Financial Advisor on the Corporate Equity Stock Plan team at Morgan Stanley, helping clients unwind their equity positions. He joined The ARA Group as a Senior Financial Advisor at Merrill Lynch Wealth Management.

A resident of the Greater Bay Area, Cliff enjoys golfing, bicycling, and spending time with his family. He is engaged in the community through his children's activities and volunteers with his son's Little League Baseball team. To give back for all that he has received, he is launching an initiative to donate drones to elementary schools as part of a program to encourage and foster student interest and education in technology.
