CandorPath Financial
CFA with 10+ years’ experience crafting smart, goal-focused investment strategies that empower families to take control of their future.
Michael’s passion and curiosity for financial markets began during the Great Recession in 2009. While a global financial crisis may deter some from wanting to get involved in the industry, it ignited a fire in Michael to pursue a career where he could help families take control of their financial futures through wise investing and detailed planning. After graduating from Florida Southern College in Lakeland with a degree in Business Administration, Michael continued his education at FSC by receiving his MBA. He elevated his financial career by earning the prestigious Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA) designation, joining a global community of 155,000 investment management professionals dedicated to upholding the highest professional standards, cultivating strong and fair investment markets, and putting investors first. With over a decade of portfolio management and financial planning experience, Michael strives to empower clients by providing them with the tools they need to make sound financial decisions. A Florida native, Michael is a diehard Miami Hurricanes fan. When he’s not watching college football, he enjoys traveling with friends. He is also an avid runner with a love for fitness.
