John Reinarz, B.Sc., PFP, CIM
Investment Advisor
When I first entered the field of financial advisory decades ago, it was a natural transition from my background in project management. I've always approached my role as akin to that of a project manager. Still, now, instead of tangible projects, I navigate the complex terrain of financial and emotional objectives, ensuring that my client's financial goals are achieved on time and within their budget.
Surprisingly, I've immersed myself in this career longer than I initially anticipated. The joy of cultivating enduring client relationships and guiding them toward their financial aspirations, despite the hurdles posed by volatile markets and economic uncertainties, has been the driving force behind my continued dedication.
In essence, I view the role of a wealth advisor as that of a risk manager. Over my three-decade journey in client advisory, the most significant lesson I've learned is the profound impact of preventing clients from making short-term financial missteps, ultimately leading to their long-term financial prosperity. This insight has been particularly evident during the tumultuous periods of upheaval in both fixed-income and equity markets throughout my extensive career.
When considering risk management, it's important to highlight that it's not solely about maximizing returns but also about being attuned to what clients retain after factoring in taxes. This nuanced and comprehensive approach to wealth management ensures that clients' financial well-being is safeguarded and optimized in a tax-efficient manner.

Investment Advisor
I can take complex structures and translate them into understandable concepts, and nowhere has this been more true than in the world of finance. At its core, an advisor is a trusted guide through one of life’s most essential and overwhelming aspects: how to responsibly manage wealth and still be able to sleep at night. I’ve always described myself as the conduit between the confusing world of finance and the individual objectives of each family or corporation we work with. We allow our clients to outsource their uncertainties to us and let them relax, knowing their future is managed in a bespoke, one-on-one plan, created specifically for their unique situation.
As a serial entrepreneur, management student, and lifelong learner, I understand the challenges, fears and stresses of businesses, along with the joys and successes. Every day, I’m lucky to draw on past entrepreneurial experience, along with my CIM® designation and CFA candidacy, and apply this knowledge to the lifetime experience of the people we work with. We are graded on the entire client experience and let this be the ultimate driver of our success.
