Vision

With over 45 years of combined experience in financial services, our firm’s founders envisioned a planning process that exists at the intersection of finance, tax and estate. At Fountainhead Wealth Advisors, original thinking is inherent in who we are and explains why we set out to redefine wealth management. 

The FWA model goes beyond making referrals to experts and brings them into the conversation at the beginning of our engagements.  The goal of our integrated planning process is designed to organize, simplify, and optimize all the crucial pieces of your financial life –  taxes, business, investments, real estate, insurance, retirement, estate planning, and philanthropy.
