Mantra
"Financial planning isn't about money, it's about giving people the freedom to live the life they want."

Henry founded Blackshire Wealth Management to flip the script on traditional financial advice. He started his career at Wilmington Trust and J.P. Morgan, then spent over a decade in tech as VP at SAP and Head of North American Customer Success at a Core Banking startup, advising C-level executives at some of the nation's largest companies. He brought all of that back to where it matters most: helping real families build real financial security.

Outside the office: You'll find Henry at a local Cars and Coffee or outdoors in Kennett Square with his wife Alison, daughters Caroline and Anna, and their dog Junebug.
