Gordian Wealth Advisors was launched by two investment professionals Britt Doyle and Elliott Elbaz, who came together to establish an independent boutique wealth management firm that will work with individuals, families, technology executives and business owners in Silicon Valley.

The firm specializes in developing customized solutions for wealth creators with complex financial needs, including concentrated stock positions, multiple business entities and a wide range of assets.

"We serve individuals who require the same inspired thinking and commitment from their wealth advisors as they demand from themselves," said Doyle, co-founder of Gordian.

Sanctuary will support Gordian with back-office and business services such as compliance, recordkeeping and money manager research and due diligence.

"We hired Sanctuary after evaluating other providers because it offered Gordian a clear competitive advantage. We also appreciate that Sanctuary truly understands the central role of the wealth advisor," Doyle added.

Gordian is the sixth team to join the Sanctuary network.

With 23 years of wealth management experience Doyle has worked for Citigroup Family Office, Merrill Lynch, Kidder Peabody and most recently USB.

Elbaz has 21 years of investment management experience for institutional and individual clients. Before co-founding Gordian, Elbaz was with the investment bank, FBR. In his early career he has worked for Wells Fargo Securities, the Chatterjee Group, an affiliate of Soros Fund Management, and Bain & Company.
