Mike began his career in financial planning as a student intern in early 2005. He has earned his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification and attained his FINRA Series 7 and Series 63 securities registrations through Commonwealth Financial Network®. He also earned his Ohio life and health insurance license. He is an Investment Adviser Representative of Commonwealth. Maintaining these licenses and registrations requires participation in continuing education programs which help keep Mike up to date on current industry trends as well as keeping him informed of any potential changes on the horizon. Mike serves as the president of Cincinnati's chapter of the Financial Planning Association. He joined the board in 2018 to take a more active role in refining and advancing the financial planning industry.
Mike was born and raised in Piqua, Ohio. He moved to Cincinnati to attend Xavier University, where he graduated with a finance degree. Mike lives in Maineville with his wife and three daughters. When there is a break from the kids' activities, he enjoys playing golf or supporting local sports teams.

Wesley pursued an undergraduate and then master’s degree in accounting. As a CPA and CFP® professional, he knows the details that need to be in place to help clients achieve their goals.
His clients include physicians, lawyers, business owners, and other professionals. He works with business owners and the HR departments within larger companies to make sure the employees fully understand the benefits that are being provided for them. There is nothing better than helping a family properly align their objectives with their strategic actions.
He has four young kids, so between work and taking care of the kids, there is not much free time. But when there is free time, you can find him drinking bourbon or cheering on my UK Wildcats.
Wesley also gives back to the community by serving as the Treasurer for the Rotary Club of Cincinnati and the Treasurer for the Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky.
