About My Practice

Artemis Financial Advisors is an independent Registered Investment Advisory firm based in Boston, Massachusetts. We help individuals and families realize their financial and investment goals by working with them to develop and implement a comprehensive financial strategy.

Artemis offers a fully integrated suite of financial planning, and investment management services. We also have a specialty in divorce financial analysis, utilized by individuals prior to and during the divorce process.

Through our integrated services, we help our clients develop a sense of clarity about their financial goals and confidence in their ability to achieve them. We manage our clients’ investments dynamically, with an approach that is cost effective and tax efficient. We execute, monitor, and adapt their strategies over time through discretionary investment management services, regular review, and ongoing support.   

We are fee-only advisors. We have no financial relationships with any brokerage firms, mutual fund companies, or money managers. The only compensation we receive is from our clients, and it is fully and clearly disclosed prior to our engagement as advisors.
