Douglas is a certified Financial Fiduciary, National Social Security Advisor certificate holder, founder and owner of Stone Eagle Financial. He serves as the President and founding member of a small business consortium that serves the RiNo district of Denver. Douglas built his practice on the belief that all people deserve financial well-being and freedom in retirement. He believes in taking an educational approach when working with clients to inform them and to ensure he understands their needs.

Douglas works with a non profit organization called American Financial Education Alliance where he teaches comprehensive retirement planning classes in the Denver area. This is how he gives back to the community he loves.

Douglas’ passion for helping others achieve financial security was developed at a young age as he worked in his family-owned businesses. The restaurants began hosting financial workshops and it was during these workshops that he realized he had not received the financial education he needed to prepare for his own long-term financial health. Since that time he has worked tirelessly to improve the financial future for all clients he serves.

Douglas and his daughter Cassidy were both born in Colorado. In his spare time you will find him cycling, skiing, and spending time in nature whenever he has the chance.

Joseph's career in the financial industry began in 2007 at UBS Financial Services where he served as a Research and Technical Analyst. His responsibilities included investment and security research, portfolio construction, and the authoring of complex financial planning strategies. Joseph then advanced to the role of Financial Advisor where he directly assisted individual, small business, and corporate clients with the management of their investment, insurance, and liability needs.

In 2018, focused on the continued best servicing of his clients, Joseph made the transition to an independent Wealth Advisor. The shift has been integral, allowing for nonproprietary investment solutions, an increased inventory of alternative strategies, and the optimization of pricing on fee based services.

He adamantly believes a Financial Plan is the foundation of the strongest client relationships. By holistically analyzing each client's unique circumstances, Joseph is able to build a customized plan which can be implemented, tracked, and updated as needed to ensure each client is in control of their financial journey. His dedication to detail and unyielding views on client service have led to multiple awards, industry and peer recognition, and invaluable long-term client relationships.
