A Merrill Lynch team with $300 million in assets has joined Raymond James & Associates.
The group, DiVestea Wealth Partners of Raymond James, will be based at an RJA branch in Mount Kisco, N.Y., after it moves in Spring 2017 from temporary offices in Danbury, Conn.
The group includes managing director and senior vice president of investments Joseph DiVestea, financial advisor Mark Mezzone, senior registered client service associate Maureen Macomber and client service associate Michael Rodriguez.
DiVestea’s financial services career began in 1990 with Lehman Brothers. He then spent 17 years working for Smith Barney, and in 2007 moved to Merrill Lynch. Mezzone started at Merrill Lynch in 2014, and previously interned with DiVestea during college. Macomber has over 20 years of experience in the financial services industry, spending 18 of them with DiVestea. Rodriguez joined DiVestea’s team recently, and has eight years of experience in the customer service industry.
