Having our partner Hanna Grichanik in from our Los Angeles office made this week in Chicago feel special. Client conversations, collaborative planning, and even a little bowling brought a renewed energy to the work we share and reinforced how meaningful in person connection truly is.

Summit & Sage thrives when we’re together, building relationships, celebrating what sets us apart, and staying grounded in guiding clients through life’s milestones with intention.

Planning for a loved one with special needs is emotional, complex, and deeply personal.

Chris Silva, ChSNC®, and Tom Canale, CFP®, ChSNC®, ChFC®, CLU®, recently partnered with Brooke Muldoon to share insights on special needs planning considerations with the Hope Foundation.

Chris’s experience as a guardian for his brother brings a powerful perspective. Tom’s decades of advocacy help families understand the landscape from navigating benefits to exploring tools like special needs trusts and ABLE accounts.

Their message was simple and reassuring: families don’t have to navigate this alone, and early planning brings peace of mind.

Summit & Sage is proud to help bring this important conversation forward.

Father’s Day gives us a moment to pause and honor the men who shaped our character, our values, and the way we show up for others.

Across our team, the stories vary: dads who built businesses from scratch, dads who taught the value of saving, dads who modeled kindness and selflessness, dads who supported every ambition. And some of us now carry those lessons forward as fathers ourselves, doing our best to guide the next generation with the same steady love.

We’re especially grateful for the moments that remind us how precious time is.

To every dad and father figure making an impact in ways big and small, Happy Father’s Day.

Hanna Grichanik & Becky Rigitano represented Summit & Sage at the Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Symposium, where sessions ranged from evolving tax policy to global geopolitical trends to sharpening long term strategy for clients.

The highlight? A reminder that in a fast moving environment, continuous learning isn’t optional it’s how we elevate the guidance we provide every day.

The retro phone photo? Just a fun moment between sessions but a good reminder that connection is at the heart of what we do.

I'm proud to work with a company that truly cares. Northwestern Mutual offers scholarships for childhood cancer survivors and their siblings. It’s a program that helps lift some of the financial burden from families and helps the students pursue their dreams through higher education.
