Santo Montalbano, CRPC®, APMA®
PARTNER | SENIOR FINANCIAL ADVISOR
Dash - Wealth was founded with the hope to deliver a truly world-class experience for my clients. Helping families achieve their financial goals allows me to leave the world in a better place than I found it. As such, I believe that time is our most precious commodity and I choose to spend mine helping people see the value in living their best dash. I often ask clients, “If you were given a week to live, how would you live it?” My talented team of professionals guides clients in managing their wealth so they can relax and enjoy their time in a meaningful way.
In addition to being a financial advisor, I am a Senior Vice President at JW Cole, overseeing a team of consultants that work with financial advisors on building better businesses. Prior to founding Dash - Wealth, I held the role of FVP at Ameriprise Financial Services, where I spoke regularly at industry conferences on asset management strategies.
My professional registrations include Series 7, 24, 63 and 65. In addition, I hold Life, Health and Variable Annuity licenses with the state of Florida and am registered in 20 states collectively. In 2017, I was recognized with the Circle of Success Leadership Award and attribute my success to the high priority I place on being a good steward of the financial services industry and my client’s wealth.
I live in Lutz, Florida with my wife, Stacie, of 17 years, son, Sam, and daughters, Maya and Lily. Outside of the office, I enjoy playing ice hockey, bow hunting and fishing.
