About Michael

As a fiduciary Financial Advisor at Farther, Michael provides a comprehensive suite of wealth management services to help clients make smart decisions with their money. By partnering closely with individuals and families, he helps them navigate their financial journeys. His core expertise lies in designing personalized strategies that empower clients to feel completely confident and secure in their financial futures. His fascination with the markets began early, he started trading stocks at 16 and never looked back. Realizing he could turn this lifelong passion into a rewarding profession, he earned his B.A. in Economics from the University of California, Irvine, in 2005. He launched his career as a trainee at Merrill Lynch in 2006, securing his Series 7, Series 66, and life insurance licenses so he could offer a full spectrum of services. Dedicated to honing his craft, he became a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor® in 2011. The daily joy of guiding people toward financial success remains his ultimate return on investment. A lifelong resident of Huntington Beach, California, he fully embraces the coastal lifestyle. Outside the office, you will most likely find him enjoying the local beach life with his wife, Georgina, and their three children: Kinsley (8), Vinny (5), and Brooke (3).
