About Ascent

At Ascent, our mission is to assist our clients in identifying and attaining their life goals. To do that, we use our experience as investment and planning professionals to look at life from their perspective — what do they want to achieve? what do they hold most important? We are committed to helping them make that happen. Our advice is straightforward and objective. We put our clients’ best interests first. Always.
Beyond our wealth management services, we also specialize in helping business owners prepare for and optimize liquidity events, and we also offer consulting for retirement plan sponsors.
