Dean Quintas

Dean Quintas is a Wealth Manager with more than two decades of experience in the financial services industry. Before becoming a financial advisor, he spent nearly 20 years at Nasdaq, where he developed a deep understanding of financial markets and the forces that shape them. A networking conversation introduced Dean to the advisory profession and prompted him to explore a new direction for his career. After carefully considering the opportunity, he recognized that financial advising would allow him to combine his market knowledge with his interest in building relationships and helping people make thoughtful financial decisions. Dean later spent six years working as a financial advisor with Merrill Lynch before joining Savvy Advisors. He focuses on constructing and managing personalized, goal-based portfolios for individuals and business owners. His work may include investment management, retirement and college planning, income planning, tax-aware strategies, securities lending, estate planning coordination, and wealth transfer considerations. Dean takes the time to understand each client’s essential responsibilities and longer-term aspirations. From there, he works backward to develop a portfolio and planning framework that reflects the client’s priorities, circumstances, and comfort with risk. Outside of his advisory work, Dean supports several charitable organizations. He is involved with No Bats Baseball Club and the Chicago West Community Music Center.
