Where do we begin? It starts with you.

At Merrill Lynch Wealth Management, your financial advisor focuses on the things you care about most- family, goals and priorities - even as they change over the years.

Understanding Your Life

Welcome

No matter your current level of wealth, making decisions about your financial future can be daunting. That’s why we believe it’s important to select a wealth management team that understands your financial priorities and looks at wealth from your perspective.

MYH Wealth Management is committed to helping you think strategically about wealth and what you want to accomplish with it. Our team shares a common goal: to provide prudent financial advice and guidance, tailored to individual goals and circumstances, for every stage of your life. 

We know it can take time to prosper, so we focus on building long-term client relationships. Over time, we can help you adjust your wealth management strategies to address life challenges and take advantage of opportunities. Along the way, we’ll offer financial education and encouragement to help you stay the course.

Philosophy

We believe the best financial approach is the one that helps you pursue your goals. That's why, from the start, we talk about your aspirations and encourage you to ask questions about issues that matter most to you. Worried about managing future health care expenses? College on the horizon? Considering the sale of a business or purchase of a home? Preparing to pass your wealth to future generations? With access to the investment insights of Merrill and the banking convenience of Bank of America, we will work with you to develop an approach designed to help address your financial needs.

The MYH Difference

Our clients are diverse. They include professionals, business owners and executives from varied cultural backgrounds, at different life stages, with wide-ranging financial goals. Some inherited their wealth; others earned or are still creating it. Some hope to travel the world in retirement, while others look forward to starting a family or buying their first home. 

We’re genuinely curious to learn what makes each client unique. That’s why we take the time to cultivate authentic relationships where we get to know clients and their families on a deep, personal level. 

Our approach to client relationships is collaborative. As your financial advisors, we will work side-by-side with you to offer financial education and motivation. Our mission is to lead the way in helping you develop the skills to make informed wealth management decisions.   
 
We encourage conversations where you can speak openly and honestly about your life and finances. By understanding what matters most to you, we can help you design a personalized pathway to pursue your wealth management objectives. 

 

Capabilities

Our process is designed to help deliver a customized, consistent experience to assist clients not only in wealth accumulation and preservation, but in areas that go beyond investments. Our ability to provide access to the investment insights of Merrill, trust and fiduciary services from Bank of America Private Bank, and the banking convenience and lending solutions of Bank of America offers a way to help clients manage all of the pieces of their financial lives. We view ourselves as a financial resource, helping clients with potential solutions for transferring wealth to the younger generation.

Trust and fiduciary services are provided by Bank of America Private Bank, a division of Bank of America, N.A., Member FDIC, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation (“BofA Corp.”).
