“I am excited to join Wescott’s team of experts and add my experience to their already highly-impressive body of work and accomplishments,” Schwartz said. “What drew me to the Wescott was the fact that innovation is a hallmark of their vision. This can be found in the significant investments they make in their technology platform, their team’s professional and personal growth, their clients’ goals and their community’s prosperity. These investments, coupled with the compassion that drives them, makes them unique in the independent RIA space. I look forward to collaborating with everyone to create tailor-made solutions for our clients and further Wescott’s mission.”
