About Waypoint

Who we are

Waypoints -- markers that chart the way for travelers and help to avoid treacherous territory -- inspired our firm's name.  As wealth managers, Waypoint Advisors helps clients set a clear direction to reach their total wealth-related goals.

Founded in 2001 by Beth Patterson, Waypoint Advisors follows a multi-family office model, providing customized, interdisciplinary wealth advisory services to families and organizations. Waypoint currently manages approximately $379 million in assets.

What clients expect from wealth managers: "respect, trust and expertise, all built on a foundation of solid advice and genuine caring. It's a relationship that empowers clients to understand they have financial and lifestyle choices." --- Bloomberg Wealth Manager, December 2003

What spurred this rapid growth and sets us apart?  In addition to our sound operating structure and professional talent, we are committed to delivering exceptional client service.  This means investing the time to:

  • Synthesize volumes of complex financial data, communicating to you what is vital for timely decisions
  • Listen to understand and respond to your needs, goals and concerns
  • Create a financial plan that truly reflects your values and needs, whether that is building financial security or making an indelible mark on your community
  • Quickly make adjustments when/if your needs suddenly change
