At Rowan Advisory, I partner with principals, family office leaders, and executives to solve the complexities of creating and managing sophisticated households—offering fractional, as-needed expertise that delivers senior-level experience without the overhead of a full-time hire.

From family office HR strategy to estate operations to unforgettable signature events, I bring over 20 years of experience supporting UHNW families, public figures, and U.S. diplomats.

Based in Boston. Serving New England and beyond.
