- Business owners navigating growth, succession, and what comes after.

Frequently Asked Questions
A lot of our clients could manage their investments themselves. Some did for years. Where we add value is seeing how every decision connects, from investments and taxes to retirement, estate planning, and everything in between.
We keep an eye on the full picture year-round, so when it’s time to sell a concentrated position, start drawing retirement income, make a Roth conversion, or navigate another big decision, you’re not starting from scratch. You already have a team that knows you and knows your plan.
We do our best work when there’s more to your financial life than one person should have to keep track of alone. That might mean selling a business, managing concentrated stock, planning for retirement, passing property to the next generation, or taking over finances after losing a spouse.
What these situations have in common is complexity and decisions that matter. And if your financial life is straightforward and you enjoy managing it yourself, we’ll be upfront about whether we can add enough value to make working together worthwhile.
Sometimes a second set of eyes is all you need. We offer a no-obligation review of your current plan to look for opportunities or details that may have been overlooked.
That could mean outdated beneficiary designations, missed Roth conversion opportunities, or investments that make sense individually but aren’t working together as one portfolio. These can be costly to leave unaddressed. But sometimes, we find everything is working exactly as it should. If that’s the case, we’ll tell you that too.
It means your investments, financial plan, and taxes don’t live in separate worlds. Our in-house tax professionals work alongside your advisors, so everything from Roth conversions and charitable giving to withdrawals and major financial decisions can be considered together.
We even ask for your tax return early in the process, before making recommendations. And when estate planning comes into play, we coordinate directly with your attorney. Less back-and-forth for you. More opportunities for us to connect the dots.
Our advisory fee is generally based on the assets we manage, and you’ll know what you’re paying before you decide to work with us. Other costs may apply, such as underlying fund expenses, custodial fees, and separate fees for tax preparation. For full details on fees and potential conflicts of interest, see our Form ADV Part 2A and Form CRS.
We don’t offer proprietary products. Our recommendations are built around your goals and what makes sense for your financial life.
Bluespring Wealth is a national wealth management platform, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Austin, Texas, that partners with independent advisory firms across the country. For us, joining Bluespring came down to two things: more continuity and more capability for our clients.
Your financial plan can span decades, so it shouldn’t depend on any one advisor. And with Bluespring behind us, our local team has access to the technology, operations, and support of a much larger organization.
Our advisory services are offered through Bluespring Wealth Management, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser that provides compliance oversight, technology, and operational support. Your day-to-day relationship, planning, and advice continue to come from your local team, who are now part of the Bluespring Wealth brand.
Your accounts stay in your name with an independent third-party custodian. We never take possession of your assets, and our access is limited to managing your accounts and deducting the advisory fee you authorize.
There’s also no long-term contract. You can end the relationship with 30 days’ notice, and because your accounts are already held in your name, your assets don’t have to move with us.
It starts with a conversation. We’ll spend 30 to 60 minutes getting to know you, what you want your money to make possible, and what brought you to us. We’ll also explain how we work and answer whatever questions you have.
From there, we decide together whether it feels like a good fit. If it does, we’ll chart the course forward. If it doesn’t, we’ll tell you. No pressure. Just a conversation about whether we’re the right team for you.
