Jeffrey D. West
Investment Advisor Representative
My career began in 2000 with NatCity Investments, where I spent eight years. My main responsibilities included assisting clients with investment advisory, retirement, and financial planning services. In 2008, I started my own practice in partnership with New York Life/NYLIFE Securities and was promoted to partner in 2011. The time spent at New York Life helped develop a well-rounded financial planning skillset with the inclusion of insurance planning into my practice. In 2013, Alpha Retirement Solutions was formed with the goal of providing objective and independent advisory services to our clients.
I am a graduate of Saint Ignatius High School in Cleveland, Ohio, and Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I currently reside in Bay Village, Ohio, with my wife, Claire, and our daughters, Nora, MaryKate, and Cara.
