ABOUT DUANE
After years of advising successful founders, I’ve seen a pattern: Great business owners often have messy financial lives.
Their accountants, attorneys, and advisors work in silos— each focused on their own piece instead of the whole.
The result?
Disorganized books. Tax surprises. Stress in your personal life. And a constant feeling of “I should be further along.” My work exists to change that.
I help business owners turn complexity into clarity, align their money with their mission, and design a life they don’t need to retire from.
We do this in two short meetings: one to uncover how much value you’re leaving on the table, and a second to decide if you want to partner with us to capture it.
I’m a Wealth Management Advisor and Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA®) with First Financial Group, where I lead a specialized team dedicated to helping business leaders turn financial success into long-term significance.
Before developing the 12 Dimensions framework, I saw how fragmented advice left business owners uncertain and unfulfilled—even as their income and net worth grew. So I built a model that connects the dots: between cash flow and legacy, business value and family security, ambition and peace of mind.
I’ve also co-produced Tony-nominated Broadway productions, served as a partner to impact-driven leaders, and built communities around financial education and empowerment. That experience taught me that the best financial planning is strategic, deeply human, and provides durable cash flow for life.
When we partner together, you’ll:
- Know precisely where your money is going and what it’s doing for you in your personal life
- Have clear visibility into your business value and how that is positioned to help you achieve personal financial freedom
- Save more, stress less, and gain time for what matters most
- Feel confident you can sell, scale, or step back on your own terms
That is what financial fulfillment looks like for business owners. That is what I help them achieve.
“Being is a business owner is never just about you. It’s about the impact you have on your family, your employees, your partners, and your community. We take care of you so you can take care of them.”
