Melissa Riven Mirabile

Melissa Riven Mirabile is a nationally recognized financial advisor of over 30 years. She is the 2nd generation Financial Advisor in her family, and the 5th advisor overall in the family; it’s in her blood. Having been in the financial industry since 1993, Melissa has established herself as a valued advisor to high-net-worth families and organizations across the country. As Senior Vice President and Portfolio Strategist at Forest Lake Wealth Partners, Melissa brings a distinct blend of personal insight, professional experience, and a client-centric approach to wealth management.

With a focus on developing portfolios based on each client’s individual needs, she rejects the cookie-cutter model-based approach of the traditional brokerage firms. Melissa's approach to financial advising is rooted in her belief that every client is unique and deserves a customized portfolio that reflects their specific needs and risk tolerance. Melissa works closely with her clients to design a plan with a goal to generate income, maximize tax-efficient growth, or preserve principal, depending on their individual goals. She maintains a limited client base to ensure personalized service and attention to detail., 

Melissa likes to say that she looks to be the calm in the financial storm that helps her clients make and stick to long-term successful strategies.  She plans for the worst and hopes for the best, so the inevitable down days in the markets are anticipated and planned for. 

Originally from Albany, NY, Melissa now resides in Cocoa Beach, FL, with her dog Rico and cat Nanners. Her favorite son, Casey, is part of her team at Forest Lake Wealth Partners, while her daughter, Jesse, still holds the title of favorite daughter. 

Melissa's recent move to LPL Financial represents a significant step in her career, driven by the desire for hybrid independence. This change allows her to leverage comprehensive resources while maintaining the flexibility to make client-centric decisions. She is excited about the ability to build customized portfolios and provide advice that is truly in the best interest of her clients.
