Tyler Waterman

Director of Research and Wealth Advisor

Tyler Waterman still remembers the moment he first understood what money really meant. He spotted a Sega Genesis in a magazine for $200, and was certain he just needed to scrape together $2.00 from his coin jar. His parents gently corrected him. What followed was his first real lesson in discipline, patience, and the space between wanting something and having the follow-through required to earn it. 

That early memory informs the way Tyler works today. As a Wealth Advisor and Director of Research at SKY Investment Group in Hartford, Connecticut, he spends his days building financial plans tailored to each client’s vision and helping them navigate decisions with confidence.  

Tyler uses every resource available to him to stay well informed on the companies SKY invests in, takes pride in helping clients become knowledgeable savers and prudent spenders, and works diligently to answer the questions that sit heaviest: whether they’ve saved enough to support the family they’ve built, and whether their children will be capable stewards of the wealth being passed to them. Behind the scenes, he researches individual holdings, conducts deep analysis, and leads SKY’s weekly investment committee to ensure every portfolio stays aligned with client goals. 

Tyler grew up in Simsbury, Connecticut, where he still lives today with his wife and two sons. You can usually find him outdoors playing baseball, fishing, kayaking, or paddleboarding, and he is always up for a good round of golf, hockey, or paddle tennis. On the weekends, Tyler loves rolling up his sleeves for home improvement and landscaping projects around the house. Tyler holds his undergraduate degree from Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
