Your taxes and
your portfolio,
working together.

Most people receive financial advice in pieces — a CPA does taxes, a financial advisor manages investments, and decisions get made independently. We coordinate both under one roof, so every move supports the next.

A golden field of crops under a clear sky during sunset with the sun low on the horizon.

WHO YOU WORK WITH

Financial & Tax Advisor

One advisor. Every angle covered.

Most firms hand you to a CPA in tax season and an advisor the rest of the year. Anton holds the credentials and the responsibility for both — investments, taxes, and the planning that ties them together.

“Every investment decision has tax consequences. My job is to see both sides before we make a move.”

THE PROCESS

Year-round, written down, and on your calendar.

Step 1

Discovery conversation

A 30-minute call to understand where you are: your tax situation, portfolio, retirement timeline, and what's worked (or hasn't) with prior advisors. No prep needed, just bring your questions.

Step 2

Coordinated review

We go through your prior returns, statements, and account documents side-by-side. This is where your taxes and your investments start talking to each other — most clients learn something they didn't know.

Step 3

Aligned Strategy

You get a written plan tying your tax decisions to your investment decisions: withdrawal sequencing, Roth conversions, contribution targets, and sale timing. All in one place.

Step 4

Year-round execution

We don't disappear between April and December. Quarterly check-ins, portfolio rebalancing, tax projections, and proactive moves before deadlines, not after. Most clients are fully onboarded within two weeks — and never again wonder whether their CPA and their advisor are on the same page.

FREE CONSULTATION

When your financial advisor and CPA don’t talk, you pay for it every year.
