Who you would be working with
Tim Ternosky is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and Chartered Investment Manager. He runs Mill Creek Wealth Management as an independent practice, which means the plan comes first and clients keep the same advisor throughout.

Setting the amount and the date for a goal, then building the savings and investment plan around it, whether that is retiring at a particular age, paying for your kids' education, or stepping back from a business you own.
Portfolio Reviews and Second Opinions
Already have an advisor and not sure the plan still fits? A straightforward review of what you hold, what it costs you, and whether it still matches what you are trying to do.
Ongoing Advice
The work that comes after the plan is in place: regular reviews, adjustments when your situation changes, and the same advisor each time, who already knows the history behind it.
Working with an independent advisor
One advisor, and no products to sell
Most people end up with an advisor by default. You opened an account at your branch, someone was assigned to you, and a few years later that person has moved on and you are explaining your situation from the beginning to somebody new.
You also do not know whether anyone has the full view of your situation, or whether the advice is shaped by what the firm is selling that quarter.
At Mill Creek, you work with Tim. He builds the plan, he manages the portfolio, and he is the one you call. The advice is independent, which means there are no in-house products to sell and no sales targets to meet.
