Jay Sharifi

Founder, President, and Investment Advisor

With over two decades of experience, Jay has helped families and businesses in the Northern Virginia community to develop comprehensive, creative retirement income strategies using investment and insurance products and services. His goal is to create financial strategies for clients’ lifetimes that capitalize on their unique opportunities while working around challenges.

Long a believer that ongoing education leads to improved performance, Jay applies advanced techniques gained while earning his Georgetown University Financial Planning certificate. His method is first to uncover and clarify specific goals. Then, he designs a custom strategy to help pursue them. He assists in implementing and overseeing that strategy, monitoring performance and adjusting it when needed. His holistic planning strategy has helped set him apart in his line of work.

A resident of Arlington, Virginia, Jay is also an active member of the communities in which he lives and works. For seven years, he has been an advocate of Cole’s Closet, a nonprofit organization assisting families with children who suffer from critical, chronic or terminal diseases. He is also a supporter of Medical Missionaries, a Manassas-based volunteer group of more than 200 doctors, nurses, dentists and other medical professionals improving the health conditions of people living in poverty in the U.S. and abroad. Jay enjoys traveling and has also been on multiple church-directed missionary trips to different countries around the world.
