About Us
Established in 1988, Bova Financial started out with a simple mission. After seeing friends and family members struggle financially, Thomas Varanelli decided to flip the page. He studied wealth management and jumped into the business with a profound focus and eager excitement to help clients pave the way to a better financial future. Decades later, we’ve developed a reputation for not just helping clients build wealth, but helping them understand HOW to build wealth in day-to-day practices.
We are confident that with our understanding of personal finance, coupled with our training as financial professionals, we can help people better prepare for the future. We also feel a commitment to our community.
