The Origin of Zenith
We've been asked how we selected the name of our new firm – Zenith Wealth Management. We took our inspiration from the following:
Over a century and a half ago, artisan watchmakers came together under one roof to dedicate their talents to the design of their timepieces to create the concept of watch making. One evening, the founder perfected a movement that was so near perfection that when he looked toward the sky, he decided to call his new movement and its manufacture after the highest point in the universe – Zenith.

On Creating Zenith Wealth Management
"Mark and I met while we both were working at Merrill Lynch in the 1990s. Our paths crossed again when we both coincidentally left our respective wire-house firms to join an independent regional boutique firm. We worked closely together for three years at that company. Mark and I came to the conclusion that if we wanted to work at a firm that was truly objective, free from conflicts of interest and solely focused on what was best for our clients, we would have to establish our own firm."

President"In late 2007, Charlie and I established Zenith Wealth Management, LLC to best serve the needs of our clients. We created Zenith as an independent wealth management firm to serve affluent investors in the U.S. and abroad. Much like the famous Swiss watch namesake, Zenith Wealth Management, LLC brings together the resources to build, protect and enhance each client’s net worth. We use our extensive relationships to provide our clients the Zenith in financial services and product offerings."
