Kai aspires to be a “personal CFO” by helping his clients see the big picture and coordinates the different aspects of their financial lives. With an honest, direct approach, clients are guided through a thorough needs analysis, with the ultimate goal of addressing the ‘what ifs’ in life; What if “you live too long”? What if you “leave”?

Kai began his career in financial services in 1997 as a stockbroker on Wall Street.  He was working on the floor of the New York Stock exchange during the attacks of 9/11, and that experience changed his life forever.  Kai gave his notice and moved to Europe to travel the world. After three years abroad, he returned to the U.S. ready to re-enter the world of financial services. However, this time with a different focus: to protect his clients and their families first.

Kai has held active roles in several local chambers of commerce, Rotary International, and volunteers as a coach for all the sports his children play.  He is also a student and instructor of various martial arts.  He resides in Sea Cliff with his wife, Patricia, and children, Kai Jr. and Sofia.
