Our Story

Our Story

The history of our firm dates back to 1984 when Tony Polito began his 25 year career with Investors Diversified Services (IDS, which was later acquired by American Express Financial Advisors, currently Ameriprise). He built his business client by client, making many phone calls and house calls, slowly establishing relationships with trust as the foundation. In 2000, Tony brought his youngest daughter, Angela, into the business. In 2005, they decided to transition their practice from Ameriprise to a fully independent platform with Commonwealth Financial Network®.  Tony retired soon after, and Angela continued in her father's footsteps.
