AXA Advisors

Serving My Clients Since 1982

My practice has been associated with AXA Advisors (formerly The Equitable) since 1982. I began my career focusing primarily on insurance and annuities. My services have since evolved to meet the diversified needs of my clients to include financial planning, investments, brokerage services and company-sponsored benefits, including retirement plans and group medical benefits.
 
I am not in the transactional product selling business. Utilizing a consultative process, I work with my clients to identify their needs and create strategies designed to achieve their goals.
 
You should consider three things before working with me. First, I never hurry when it comes to financial decisions. If you don’t have the time to do it right the first time, you probably won’t have the time to do it over. ‘Do-overs’ are far too expensive when considering your financial life. Secondly, I believe in giving long answers to short questions. Knowledge is power. I believe that my job is to continually empower my clients to better understand and participate in their financial management. Thirdly, when representatives change firms, their former clients often have their accounts assigned to strangers. This has never happened to my clients. I have been here for them for over 25 years. Consistency is of utmost importance.
 
My staff includes my wife and office manager, Faye and nephew, Keith Propes, MBA. Thank you for taking your valuable time to visit my site.
