About Us.
Our clients are the most important part of who we are.
We're dedicated to knowing each of our clients personally over a long-term relationship. While we do have clients all across the country spanning from coast to coast that we work with virtually, our local clients are centered in the Southern Tier, Catskills, and Hudson Valley regions of New York.
Our advisors Ed Yetsko and Brianna Sternkopf, each with complementary skill sets, work as a team on behalf of our clients, supported by a dedicated and experienced client service staff that takes pride in nurturing the personal relationships that we have developed with our clients.
Ed Yetsko, MBA, CFP®, RMA®, AIF®, CSRIC®
Senior Wealth Advisor
As a fee based, fiduciary financial advisor, my focus is on forging secure retirement paths and legacy plans that resonate with our clients' values.
Together with my daughter Brianna and my client relationship support team, we work as the AspireQuest Wealth Advisors Group at William Joseph Capital Management, Inc., crafting personalized financial solutions designed with a goal to sustain and enrich our clients' lives beyond their working years.
Our approach is rooted in values-based investing, aiming to align each portfolio with the principles that matter most to our clients while pursuing growth opportunities. With a tenure in wealth management that spans decades, as a Certified Financial Planner TM professional, my mission is to act as an unwavering fiduciary, always prioritizing the best interests of those we serve.
Brianna Sternkopf, MBA, AAMS®
Investment Advisor Representative
As a busy mother, wife, financial advisor, and team member, I understand the importance of planning for the future and focusing on the big picture to achieve long-term success. Together with my father, Ed Yetsko, a retired Naval officer whose deep commitment to service has shaped my own dedication, we work as a team to provide our clients with a holistic and comprehensive financial relationship. His disciplined approach, combined with my focus on building meaningful connections, drives our client-centered practice.
At the heart of what we do is a commitment to serving a diverse range of individuals. Whether you’re starting a family, managing a career, buying a home, funding your child’s education, navigating life transitions such as divorce or widowhood, or caring for an aging parent, we are here to guide you.
Your financial situation is unique, and we take pride in developing strategies designed to align with your individual goals.
