After beginning his career in 2011 with another financial advisory firm, Jeff joined Sagemark Consulting in 2013 to build and grow a business in helping people reach their goals. As a 2nd-generation advisor, he worked closely with his father for more than a decade.
In 2016, Jeff earned the CFP® certification, the highest standard in the industry, to distinguish himself from other advisors. CFP® professionals have completed extensive training, experience requirements, and are held to rigorous ethical standards. CFP® professionals are required to make financial planning recommendations in a client’s best interest, and Jeff acts as a fiduciary**** with his clients.
To better serve business owners and corporate executives, Jeff is an active member of LFA’s Business Intelligence Institute* and Lincoln Executive Consulting.
In his last two years at John Carroll University, 2009 and 2010, he served as captain of JCU Men's Soccer.
Jeff’s core philosophy is to take care of people in the same way he would wish to be treated — prepared, proactively guiding, following through, responding within 24 hours — which is less than common today, across all industries. He built his practice for clients to have confidence they are doing the right things, and will ultimately get to where they want to be.
Jeff enjoys working with people who have worked hard to develop their businesses, careers, and themselves — have been rewarded for it — and want to make the most of everything they've created, for their personal lives and their families.
