Scott Floersheim serves as a managing partner and financial advisor in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he focuses on wealth management and tax-aware strategies for high-net-worth individuals, near-retirees, and retirees. Scott has more than 40 years of financial industry experience, where he’s helped clients align investment, estate, and cash flow planning with long-term tax efficiency.

He holds the Personal Financial Specialist (PFS) credential, is a Certified Private Wealth Advisor® (CPWA®), and is a Retirement Management Advisor® (RMA®). He prioritizes clear, data-driven recommendations that help families preserve wealth across generations.
Scott earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting from the University of New Mexico. He remains active in his community as a member of the Endowment Committee for Albuquerque Academy. He supports several charitable organizations, including local food banks, the New Mexico Animal Humane Association, the Morris Animal Foundation, and the Albuquerque BioPark.
Family and personal interests play an important role in Scott’s life. He has been married for more than 25 years and enjoys traveling with his wife, daughter, and their dog throughout the western United States.
