Biography
Ben founded Summit Financial, a fractional Accounting & Financial Management consulting firm in 2012. Summit was created to help business owners wrap their heads around the financial management aspects of a growing organization. At the time, Summit Financial was a consulting firm solely devoted to assisting businesses resolve their financial management issues. Over time however, Summit expanded into Tax, Accounting and Business Valuation to provide a comprehensive solution for the client’s needs.
Ben’s professional experience began in 2004 after completing his undergraduate degree in Finance & Economics. He spent 3 years with State Street Bank in Boston, MA as a Business Development Analyst, ultimately leading a small staff of employees. In 2007, after completing his Master’s degree in Finance, he accepted a position as an Equity Analyst at MFS Investment Management. While at MFS Ben evaluated the future prospects of many publicly traded companies, presenting investment recommendations to Senior Management to allocate a portion of the firm’s $350 Billion in assets.
In an effort to attain work-life balance, he relocated to Colorado in 2010, accepting a role as an Equity Analyst at private hedge fund. For the following 2 years he continued to evaluate and present investment recommendations, assisting in the management of the firm’s assets. However, as time passed, he realized his true calling was in the development of businesses.
In late 2012, Ben shifted back toward the corporate world, accepting a role in Business Development with Newfield Exploration while simultaneously launching Summit Financial. As demand for Summit's services grew, it became apparent he had to make a choice as to what path to head down. So, in early 2015, Ben left the “corporate world” for Summit Financial, where his true calling lies. Over the years he expanded the business throughout the Rocky Mountain and Gulf Coast States and currently splits his time between Bozeman, Montana, and Park City, Utah.

Can I Select Certain Services?
Not a problem, think of Our Services as a la carte! We will custom-fit our services to your business’s needs. In addition, we recognize that at times you may also require services Summit does not offer. To bring our clients the best service possible, we have partnered with trusted firms to offer these services, enabling us to help you find the assistance you need as we help guide your business to success.
Where Do I Begin?
It's Easy! In our experience many clients aren't sure how all of our services fit their organization. That is why we offer a free assessment, so let us schedule a Consultation to evaluate what your business’s needs.
How Long Is The Process?
If you decide to utilize Summit after an initial Consultation, moving forward is seamless. The initial evaluation and set-up will vary depending on each client’s needs. However, in our experience, it will take approximately 60-80 hours to validate current processes as well as establish a working baseline. Once complete, our flexible fee structure allows you to use as much, or as little of our expertise as you see fit. In our experience, many clients require about 10-25 hours per month on an ongoing basis to help guide their businesses to success.
What If I Already Have a Bookkeeper or CPA?
Not a Problem! Summit Financial will work hand-in-hand with your existing bookkeeper and/or CPA to ensure accuracy of financial records. Additionally, our financial planning models will be invaluable to your existing CPA for tax planning purposes! It is important to realize that our services are designed to integrate and support existing talent you may already have on your team, not replace them.
