Doug started his career in the financial services industry in 1983 and has held the Chartered Financial Analyst designation since 1987. In 2005, Doug formed his own investment advisory firm, which, in 2013, merged into Avant-Garde Advisors, one of two companies that formed WealthSource Partners. Doug enjoys providing objective investment management and legacy planning advice.

Formerly a Portfolio Manager with Wells Fargo’s Private Asset Management group, Doug also managed fixed-income portfolios for United Capital Management, a subsidiary of Norwest Bank Minnesota. Doug believes in active management, i.e., managing investment portfolio risk exposure based on what’s happening in the market now. “Volatility” creates risk and opportunity in the financial markets and Doug believes that being on the right side of volatility is the key to successful active management.
