He who is prepared for the future and he who deals cleverly with any situation that may arise are both happy; but the fatalistic man who wholly depends on luck is ruined.―Chanakya, Royal Advisor to Emperor Chandragupta Maurya

Jai Shri Krishna! Being a first generation Indian-American who immigrated to the U.S. at a young age, my family and I have experienced firsthand the challenges and hardships our community faces in regards to building a foundational financial plan.
Having spent the early stages of my career with large institutions as a Research Analyst and serving as a Portfolio Manager for a wealth management and investment advisory firm, I launched Mehta Financial Group, LLC in 2010 in order to guide individuals and families along their financial journey by designing dynamic, actionable, and organic financial plans.
Since founding Mehta Financial Group, LLC, I have been recognized nationally as Financial Advisor of the Year (Southeast)¹, Top 40 Under 40 Financial Advisor², and have been the recipient of the Rising Star Award by InvestmentNews³ . Furthermore, I have been named a 40 Under 40 Wealth Manager by Fortune Magazine⁴ and a Top Financial Security Professional by Forbes Magazine⁵. In addition, I have been featured on the cover of Proactive Advisor Magazine, featured and quoted by several local and national publications, and was the recipient of the Financial Planning Association’s Diversity Scholar Award⁶ for serving diverse communities.
I have also been honored with the Young Alumni Achievement Award from Florida State University⁷ and been named a Five Star Wealth Manager by Richmond Magazine⁸. Moreover, I am also a guest speaker and panelist at industry events.
I graduated from Florida State University with a dual Bachelor of Science Degree in Economics and Classics and continued my academic pursuits by earning an MBA in Finance and Investment Analysis from the University of Tampa. In addition, I also hold a Certificate in Investment Banking and International Macroeconomic Investing (CIBIMI)™ from the Swiss Finance Academy's Wall Street Finance Institute.
Furthermore, I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Practitioner and Chartered Financial Consultant® – exemplifying my commitment to the highest standards of integrity and professionalism in the industry.
On a personal note, when I am not in the office, you can find me reading ancient history and theology, training in the gym, and spending time with my family.
If you are ready to begin your financial journey or desire a second opinion, I am eager to guide you through the process. Together, we will construct a disciplined approach to address your unique goals and concerns.
