Willcox Wealth Management started with a simple idea: financial advice doesn’t have to be complicated.

Before I became a financial planner, I worked for the Boston Red Sox. While I was there, I kept noticing how confused most people felt about their finances, and how few of them had anyone to ask for a straight answer. That's what originally pulled me into this work.

I became a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional in 2022. In 2024 I became an Enrolled Agent, a tax credential granted by the IRS, because I wanted a deeper understanding of tax. So many planning questions turn out to be tax questions. Whether to do a Roth conversion this year, or when to sell a block of RSUs, usually comes down to what it does to your return.

Today I work with clients in New York City and across the country as an independent, fee-only fiduciary. I don't earn commissions. My fees are straightforward: a percentage of the assets I manage, or a flat fee for a one-time plan. Either way, you'll always work with me directly.
