Larry in real life

What keeps you busy outside of work?

I am an avid fisherman and I have never had a bad day fishing. Fishing, much like investing, requires patience, discipline, and persistency. I believe fishing is the sport of kings and it’s the new golf.

What makes you tick?

Spending time with my grandson. Seeing the world and experiencing life through the eyes of a young child.

How do you give back?

My wife and I have had the privilege of being foster parents to nine amazing kids over the years. It was not easy, but we have never regretted a minute of it.

AdvisorHub Top 250 RIA 2025: To be considered for the rankings, advisors complete an application and have at least $150m in AUM, seven years of experience, two years of good standing tenure at their current firm, and a clean regulatory record. The collective AdvisorHub rankings celebrate excellence in scale, growth, and professionalism—qualities that define our team.

Forbes Top Next-Gen Wealth Advisors, Best-In-State 2025: The rankings, developed by SHOOK Research, is based on an algorithm of qualitative criteria—mostly gained through telephone, virtual, and in-person due diligence interviews—and quantitative data. Those advisors that are considered have a minimum of four years’ experience, and the algorithm weighs factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass the highest standards of best practices. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK receive a fee in exchange for rankings.

Please Note: Limitations. Neither rankings and/or recognitions by unaffiliated rating services, publications, media, or other organizations, nor the achievement of any professional designation, certification, degree, or license, membership in any professional organization, or any amount of prior experience or success, should be construed by a client or prospective client as a guarantee that they will experience a certain level of results if Mercer Advisors or its investment professionals are engaged, or continues to be engaged, to provide investment advisory services. A fee was not paid by either Mercer Advisors or its investment professionals to receive the award or ranking. The award or ranking is based upon specific criteria and methodology. No ranking or recognition should be construed as an endorsement by any past or current client of Mercer Advisors or its investment professionals.
