Carl Kaliszewski

Known for his memorable and signature “Cowboy” hat, Carl understood early in his career the importance of helping individuals, families and small businesses take a holistic approach to plan, create and preserve financial, legacy and succession strategies without being held captive to one particular firm’s views, products or sell-list.

In order to put the needs of his clients front and center, Carl established his own independent advisory firm known today as Five Eleven Financial, to ensure he could deliver ideas and market offerings that help fit each client's specific lifestyle goals and needs.  Carl measures success not by a dollar value but rather by the volume of referrals sent to him and the longevity of the relationships he has maintained with his clients over time.

Carl’s passion to help others extends in his support of a number of philanthropic and community organizations. Carl is always happy to help out the communities he serves.

Carl earned a BBA degree with a focus in Marketing from the University of Massachusetts – Amherst.  He is also a graduate of the Greico Wall Street Academy and continues to pursue certifications and licenses in his field.

Carl believes in maintaining the highest standards of integrity and professionalism in all client engagements – doing what’s right and delivering the best tools and resources to help them see the bigger picture to make informed decisions that align with their values and goals.  He loves what he does and understands the challenges individuals and families face today – from managing debt – to saving for college – to retirement to unexpected emergencies – these challenges can be overwhelming.  He’s committed to utilizing all of the best resources to help clients navigate any life event or market nuances.

In his spare time, Carl enjoys “life at the lake,” Martha’s Vineyard, and traveling with his wife Ann, as well as fishing and hanging out with good friends.
