Kevin Dauphinee, MBA, founder and managing partner at Gold Standard Wealth Management LLC, has been recognized by Marquis Who’s Who Top Executives for dedication, achievements, and leadership in financial services.
With nearly a decade and a half of experience, Mr. Dauphinee has established a successful career in financial services, currently serving as managing partner at Gold Standard Wealth Management LLC, a role he has held since 2021. In this position, he guides young and working clients toward asset growth and family protection while helping retirees minimize taxes, sustain their lifestyles, and reach their financial goals gracefully. His previous experience includes financial planner at Eagle Strategies LLC from 2016 to 2021 and financial advisor at New England Financial from 2010 to 2016. Earlier in his career, he served as vice president at Harris Corporation, managing director at Pinnacle Systems, and worldwide sales manager at Hewlett-Packard. He also dedicates his time, serving with the Social Register of Las Vegas since 2010, as treasurer of Sun City Anthem TV from 2012 to 2019, and as speakers’ chair for the Anthem Financial Club during the same period. Additionally, he served on the National Ethics Bureau in from 2013 to 2014 and as treasurer for the Foundation Assisting Seniors from 2012 to 2019.
Laying a solid educational foundation, Mr. Dauphinee earned a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering from Colorado State University in 1976, followed by a Master of Business Administration in finance from Fordham University in 1985. He holds Series 6, 63, 65, 66, and 7 certifications from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, a life and health insurance license from the Nevada State Insurance Division, and an executive leadership development certificate in international marketing from Stanford University Graduate School of Business in 1989. Reflecting on his path, 14 years ago, he transitioned from a broadcasting career in Beijing to financial planning in the U.S., focusing on the unique needs of seniors, such as Medicare, Social Security, and tax planning, to help them manage cash flow and reduce tax burdens. After an initial two-year stint in China, he chose to stay longer, valuing his network there and starting his own business, which he ran independently for nine years. Later, during the Recession, he joined New York Life, gaining valuable advisory experience, and eventually found his current role in an expanding financial services firm.
Mr. Dauphinee attributes his success to his skill in simplifying complex financial issues, such as risk management, portfolio construction, and crafting financial plans that ensure consistent cash flow for retirees. This approach helps his clients maintain their finances and lifestyle while achieving their aspirations. Inspired by his American-Italian partner and his love for Italy’s lifestyle, weather, food, and wine, he plans to relocate there in the coming years, intending to hand over his firm to successors and stay connected with his top clients globally via Zoom. His vision is to establish a global wealth management standard and gradually transition from daily operations. To realize this goal, he plans to bring on two advisors aligned with his strategy, enabling him to step back from day-to-day responsibilities.
