Wesley Ford - Founder - Financial Advisor 

Wes's journey into the financial industry began in 2013, influenced by his grandfather's pioneering work in developing a groundbreaking vaccine that revolutionized the safe transportation of cattle across the nation. This innovation ensured that cows and hogs could be transported without the risk of illness. Inspired by his grandfather's problem-solving spirit, Wes was drawn to the financial world.

However, his grandfather's retirement brought unexpected challenges. Significant financial losses, caused by a stock market downturn and large investments in Florida real estate, deeply impacted his grandfather’s retirement. Wes believes that with the guidance of a skilled financial advisor, these losses could have been mitigated.

Prior to founding Vineyard Financial NYC, Wes served as a Vice President, advising financial advisors on how to prevent common financial pitfalls for their clients. During this time, he noticed that many advisors were overwhelmed by the sheer volume of cases, making it difficult to provide the high level of service their clients deserved. This realization led Wes to establish Vineyard Financial NYC, a branch of Vineyard Financial, dedicated to offering personalized attention to a select group of clients.
