For over 20 years, Scott has worked as a financial professional and is the founder of W.I.T. Capital Management. The foundation of the business was built along the premise of his favorite motto in life “You never really find yourself until you give yourself away”.
The concept of W.I.T. Capital Management is not to be everything to everyone, but instead we strive to be a trusted partner to a select few. One of the characteristics that Scott is most proud of is that every client can be traced back to the first. Building strong relationships, treating every client equally and treating every dollar as if it were his own is the philosophy Scott stands behind. He has always believed in “radical transparency” and being honest and frank, even when it’s uncomfortable.
Scott is involved in every aspect of the business; however his primary focus is investment strategy, risk analysis, asset management strategies, and business succession planning. He has dedicated his professional career to forming relationships with his clients and is grateful to have the opportunity to work with them.
