Journey 1 Advisors

We are a registered investment advisor based in Pennsylvania. We are research intensive focusing on fundamentals complemented by technical analysis. We customize portfolios to meet our clients objectives and create unique portfolios. We manage portfolios for individuals, families, trusts, and institutions.

Our investment process begins with first determining our clients risk profile and investment goals. Then portfolios are designed to achieve the highest risk-adjusted returns to meet the clients objectives. We follow up with communications to clients to inform them of changes in the investment landscape. The focus is always on how we can satisfy the needs of our clients. 

Our Mission & Values

Our mission is to help clients formulate and then meet their investment objectives while providing the best possible service. We strive to build long-standing relationships with our clients that are based on trust and integrity.
