About Us
Born from a shared vision at JP Morgan Private Bank, KRM Investment Counsel was founded on a simple premise: true wealth management can't be mass-produced. Jim Rapp and Justin Klestinski, CFA recognized that serving clients best meant breaking free from institutional constraints that prioritized scalability over personalization. Joined by Alex Marmitt, WMCP who brings nine years of industry expertise, we built KRM to put relationships before bottom-line growth, creating a firm where client success drives every decision.

The KRMIC Difference
We operate with complete independence, allowing us to serve our clients the way wealth management should be delivered - with personal attention, rapid responsiveness, and customized solutions. Our team brings together decades of institutional expertise with the agility and dedication of a boutique firm. We measure our success not by the number of clients we serve, but by the depth and longevity of our client relationships.
