David Legus, MBA
Managing Director, Florida Office

David Legus has worked with business leaders and entrepreneurs for over 25 years. Before entering financial services, he got his start in management consulting where he not only had the opportunity to work with world-class organizations, but also the executives and visionaries running them. During that time he took a keen interest in getting to know their personal stories and what drove them to be successful. This same curiosity, along with a history of genuinely wanting to help, has proven to be an excellent foundation for working with families in the process of providing thoughtful advice and managing their wealth.
A native of Edina, Minnesota, David has been living in Naples, Florida since 2013.
