About Us
There's enormous strength in the finer details.
Our Roots
William Hubble, CFP® founded Sequoia Private Wealth Management as a forward-thinking, fee-only Registered Investment Advisor firm, replacing the usual Wall Street hype with high-touch wealth management, retirement-ready planning, and evidence-based investing. We help families aspire toward their greatest financial goals.
Why Sequoia Private Wealth?
There are two reasons the Sequoia leaf represents our vision for client care. The frond reflects our focus on each unique relationship we form: each individual, each family, each loyalty. The tree itself reminds us of the enormous strength and enduring truths that come from tending to the finer details along the way.
Our Pledge to You
We position you, our client, at the center of our professional interest, unifying the granular and grand pieces of your total wealth: investment, retirement, tax, estate, charitable, insurance and related planning. An independent Texan firm, we proudly leverage the nationwide power of The BAM Alliance, to combine attentive client care with strong, broad-based services and deep intellectual capital.

Our Alliances
The Bam Alliance
Sequoia Private Wealth is a proud member of The BAM ALLIANCE, a community of more than 140 independent wealth management firms across the country who are united in helping more than 17,000 investors nationwide take control of their financial futures and achieve their life's most important goals. The BAM ALLIANCE community represents more than $26 billion of collective assets under management or administration (as of March 31, 2015).
Dimensional Fund Advisors
Since 1981, Dimensional has been advancing academic collaboration and disciplined fund management strategy to replace Wall Street’s usual attempts to chase rather than participate in capital market returns. Its global family of funds helps us put evidence-based investing to work for our clients. We also apply other, similarly managed solutions as warranted – whatever advances our clients’ highest interests.
Independent Custodians: Fidelity and Schwab
We turn to independent custodians to ensure that our clients’ managed accounts are held safely and securely. As a Sequoia client, you typically grant us Limited Power of Attorney, so we can provide portfolio performance reports and submit trade requests on your behalf. But your accounts are held strictly in your name, with account statements sent directly to you.
