Meet Your Advisor

John Ramsden — Founder, Wealth Rise

With over 20 years in financial services, I’ve seen firsthand how the wrong tax strategy can cost retirees hundreds of thousands of dollars. That’s why I built Wealth Rise — to give people a clear, tax-efficient path to retirement that protects what they’ve worked their entire lives to build.

I specialize in Roth conversions, tax reduction strategies, and retirement income planning. As a fiduciary, my only obligation is to you — not a bank, not a brokerage, not a product company.

Our Approach

Tax Strategy Is the Strategy

Every dollar you overpay in taxes is a dollar taken from your retirement — and from your family’s future. We analyze your complete financial picture to build a strategy that minimizes your lifetime tax burden and maximizes what you keep.

Our Mission

To provide affluent retirees with expert, fiduciary-first tax strategies that minimize lifetime taxes and maximize the wealth they leave to their families.

Who We Are

A team of experienced financial advisors, tax specialists, and wealth strategists dedicated to helping clients navigate the complex intersection of retirement income and tax planning.

What We Do Differently

While most firms stop at managing investments, we start with the question that matters most: How do you keep more of your money? We analyze your complete tax picture to build strategies that minimize your lifetime tax burden.

Our Values

Fiduciary First — legally and ethically obligated to act in your best interest. Transparency — you understand every recommendation. Expertise — we specialize in tax-efficient retirement strategies, not generic financial advice.

Our Promise

A comprehensive, personalized retirement tax strategy designed to minimize your lifetime taxes and protect your family’s inheritance. No pressure. No sales tactics. Just clarity and expertise.

Our Commitment

Fiduciary First — Always.

As a fiduciary, we are legally and ethically obligated to act in your best interest — not ours. Every recommendation we make is designed to serve your goals, not generate commissions. This is the foundation of our business and the reason our clients trust us with their retirement.
