Firm Updates

One of the best ways to decide what career is best for you is to dip your toes into a particular industry and gain hands-on experience. This is how I indirectly found my way into the financial services industry. I was initially drawn to the field of law, but after working at a law firm during high school, I quickly realized it wasn’t the right fit for me.

With recent legislation and an evolving market, many registered investment advisors (or RIAs) have been forced to alter their approach. Whether it’s changing their approach or adjusting their business model, clients have begun to scrutinize many of the firms on the market. At Simon Quick Advisors, we continue striving every day to provide our clients with exceptional service.

I have often been asked by clients to explain why I entered the wealth management industry and chose to become a financial advisor. I knew I wanted to give a career in finance a shot, however, I didn’t know which area would be the best fit for me.

An advisor can play one of the most prominent roles in a person’s life, forming a long-lasting relationship and providing trusted counsel. It’s not surprising, then, that it can be incredibly overwhelming to find an advisor you trust and with whom you want to work with for the long-term.

At a young age, I saw just how true the phrase “do what you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life” is. My father was a successful Wall Street leader, and I saw how much he loved his job. He provided a strong and positive impression of the financial services industry, and I was inspired to do the same: pursue a career that allowed me to help others and feel satisfied in what I was doing.
