Conan Ward operates his Kingsview Partners practice out of Wayne, New Jersey, serving clients across North Jersey and beyond. Born and raised in Wayne, Conan built a long career in financial services before stepping into wealth management — first as a programmer at PaineWebber and UBS (where he became a Director), then as a consultant at Morgan Stanley focused on technical consolidation and broker platform development.
In September 2014, he made a deliberate pivot from the corporate world and began his career as a financial advisor, bringing more than 35 years of financial industry experience to the clients he serves today.
A Coach’s Mindset for Life’s Biggest Decisions
Conan’s advisory style is shaped by a lifetime of coaching and personal discipline. He coached track and cross country in Wayne for over 25 years, and he approaches client relationships the same way — with patience, consistent follow-through, and a focus on helping people make progress toward what matters most.
He works closely with individuals and families who want clarity around life’s biggest financial decisions, and he takes real satisfaction in helping clients build a plan for their future with confidence and purpose.
“I’ve always been motivated by helping people — coaching, guiding, and assisting someone as they work toward a goal. That’s what I enjoy most about this work.”
Life Outside the Practice
Conan and his family live in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, where they have been for over 20 years. Outside his practice, he has always been an athlete at heart. While he’s had to slow down in recent years, that same competitive spirit and steady perspective continues to shape how he shows up for clients and for the people he cares about most — including his wife, Irene, and their daughter, Caroline.
