Bernstein Private Wealth Management has appointed Kristen Dalton as a managing director, joining its leadership team in its New York City office.

Dalton will work with her team to help high net worth individuals, business owners, families, and charitable groups align investment and wealth planning decisions with their long-term goals.

“As we face significant economic and social challenges, both nationally and in the New York City area, our clients are more concerned than ever about not only preserving their wealth but using it to make a meaningful impact on society," David Barnard, head of PWM, said. “Kristen’s deep expertise in family dynamics makes her particularly well suited to help our clients set an intention with their wealth and manage it in a way that resonates across generations.”

Prior to joining the firm earlier this year, Dalton served as VP and head of family law advisory at BNY Mellon Wealth Management, where she worked with families going through divorce. Previously, she was at Gordon Brothers Group, based in Boston, Massachusetts. Dalton holds a BS in business administration from Villanova University and an MBA in finance from Boston College. She is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst.
