Sean grew up in Pittsburgh, PA and later attended Harvard University, finishing as a 3-year starter on the football team with a degree in Economics.

After attending Manatee Technical Institute for EMT training and St. Petersburg College Fire Academy for firefighting, he has worked for both Hillsborough County Fire Department and Sarasota County Fire Department.

Utilizing his insights as a 13-year Wall Street veteran and firefighter, Sean joined Base Wealth Management in February 2021 with the goal of helping others navigate the financial concerns typical of anyone concerned about retirement, whether in the public sector with pension questions or how to invest in the Deferred Comp or DROP plan, or typical IRA’s (Roth),Solo 401(k) or college savings.

His eldest son, Jack, graduated with a degree in Biomedical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and now works as a technology consultant for Deloitte and his younger son, Sam, graduated from Dartmouth College with a degree in economics and works for Noble Environmental in Pittsburgh.

His daughter Sally is finishing up sophomore year at the University of New Hampshire. Sean has been married for 25 years to Suzanne, who is a professional photographer at Koscho Photography. When not staying fit through running or biking, you will likely find Sean traveling with his lovely wife.
