Les Campbell started his career as a CPA for Price Waterhouse, and served for many years as the CFO for two large real estate developers in south Florida.
He believes that this background allowed him to develop a very professional and organized approach to financial planning. He also believes that his customers appreciate his thoughtful, low-key approach to handling their accounts.

Les works hard to keep his customers well-informed on general market conditions. He feels that it is extremely important for clients to understand the relationship of risks versus rewards when making investment decisions. “I’m a conservative fixed income guy. First and foremost, I want to protect capital. As we often say in this business, return of principle is more important than return on principal.

“95% of brokers have very little idea what goes into tax-free bond investments. We endeavor to provide higher levels of income with relative safety and the experience of understanding how to structure a portfolio and maintain it.”
Alan Dalewitz has taken his own advice to stick to what you know. With over 40 years in the securities industry, from operations to financing to investments, Alan has a wealth of knowledge. Approaching each investment with an economics and accounting eye, Alan keeps his sights on preserving capital. Diversifying portfolios helps him achieve that goal.
Although “digging into all the details” is a 24-hour-a-day job, nothing satisfies Alan more than searching for the right investment for the right client after he truly understands their goals.
Alan loves the freedom of working at HJ Sims’ smaller, family-run firm where he can respond more quickly to the needs of his 150+ clients. What’s more, his investment advice has come full circle: Alan invests his own money in HJ Sims’ tax-free bonds, truly adhering to what he knows.

“I’m fortunate to have clients that are a pleasure to work with. They’ve worked hard to earn and save, and I make sure those savings work hard for them in return. They drive the process, and it’s my job to fully understand their goals and work together with them in constructing a strategy to achieve those goals, then implement that strategy.”
P.J. Dee always felt he was destined for a career in financial services, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather; however, he majored in sociology in college because he wanted to learn as much as he could about people and the world around him.
After a few years with a Wall Street global investment management firm, P.J.’s passion for helping clients generate income to meet current needs and plan for retirement inspired his move to HJ Sims.
P.J.’s background and experience comes in handy when helping his clients make investment decisions that are right for them. “I’ve learned that it’s important to let my clients take the lead, and to listen more than I speak. Once I feel certain that I fully understand a client’s needs, we can develop a plan together, which I implement and oversee.”
To P.J., it’s important to be honest, knowledgeable and diligent in working with clients. “I can’t control the market,” he says, “but I do control the ability to do my best by my clients by making sound investment decisions with them, and helping them to meet their goals.”

“To me, trust between client and broker is paramount. I want my clients to be satisfied with their investments, and that’s why I’m constantly searching for the best value—with the right balance between risk tolerance and yield”.
Stacy prides herself on being a fixed income specialist, with expertise in everything from taxable corporate bonds to tax-free municipals. She believes in the power of bonds to preserve capital while generating income. She also knows that to correctly assess risk, she must understand the bond issuer’s underlying story.

Stacy’s greatest satisfaction comes from helping her clients find investments that work best for them. That’s why she relies on direct collaboration with HJ Sims traders and bankers to find investments that offer the right ratio of risk and return.

“You need to put your clients’ needs first and look at every investment to see what’s right for them.”
It was Les Goodman’s dream to leverage his ability to interpret numbers into a career as a sports statistician. What may have been a loss for sports team owners has been certainly been a gain for Les’s fixed-income clients.

Thanks to the expertise at HJ Sims, Les’s clients have an opportunity to potentially generate income they can count on. In fact, they can usually generate more real income, relative to the risk they are willing to take, than with other investments like equities and mutual funds.
While Les can help his clients take advantage of the most innovative bond structures, he’s a stickler for genuine old fashioned, person-to-person communication. He also tells it as he sees it: “it’s smarter to invest in individual bonds as opposed to bond funds.”
