Sela Capital Group Redefines Its Wealth Management Model

Oct 23, 2026

Sela Capital Group introduces an integrated, family-office-style approach to wealth management for high-net-worth families and business owners.

United States, October 23, 2026 -- Sela Capital Group, a boutique wealth management and financial advisory firm headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado, has announced a comprehensive approach to serving high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients that moves beyond the boundaries of conventional financial advice. The firm integrates investment strategy, advanced tax planning, private market opportunities, estate coordination, business advisory, and specialized jurisdictional planning under a single, coordinated vision designed for families and entrepreneurs whose financial lives have grown increasingly complex.

The announcement reflects a growing recognition within the financial services industry that traditional wealth management, often centered primarily on portfolios and retirement planning, frequently addresses only a portion of the needs of affluent families. Sela Capital Group was established to close that gap through a model that examines how each financial decision influences a client's broader financial position.

Addressing the Limits of Conventional Advice

For decades, wealth management has largely focused on investment portfolios, asset allocation, and long-term retirement planning. For individuals who have accumulated substantial wealth, however, these services often represent only a fraction of their priorities. Tax exposure, business interests, estate considerations, liquidity events, alternative investments, and multigenerational wealth preservation all require attention that extends well beyond portfolio performance.

Sela Capital Group was built to address these interconnected realities. The firm recognizes that as wealth grows, so does its complexity, and that investment performance is only one component of a much larger financial picture. Rather than treating investment management, tax strategy, estate planning, and business advisory as isolated services, Sela coordinates these disciplines to help clients identify opportunities that conventional planning may overlook.

"Traditional wealth management focuses on what clients have accumulated," the firm noted in describing its philosophy. The firm instead concentrates on how every component of a client's wealth can work together to support their future.

A Family-Office Approach in a Boutique Setting

Sela Capital Group operates with a family-office-style structure that allows for a degree of personalization, collaboration, and attention that can be difficult to achieve within larger institutions. The firm works alongside clients' certified public accountants, attorneys, and other trusted advisors to help align strategies, identify potential inefficiencies, and develop solutions tailored to each client's objectives.

This collaborative model reflects the firm's belief that the strongest financial outcomes begin with coordinated decision-making across investments, tax, legal, business, and estate considerations. By bringing these areas together under one strategic framework, Sela aims to help clients navigate complexity and make informed decisions with clarity and confidence.

The firm's specialized services span several disciplines. Investment strategy and portfolio management are built around each client's objectives, liquidity requirements, and risk tolerance, with an emphasis on disciplined oversight and strategic asset allocation. Advanced tax planning explores opportunities to improve tax efficiency through strategic asset location, tax-loss harvesting, capital gains management, and multiyear projections, always in coordination with qualified tax professionals.

For eligible investors, the firm evaluates access to private equity and other alternative strategies that may offer additional diversification. Estate and legacy planning services help families develop coordinated wealth transfer strategies, while business owner advisory addresses concentrated business wealth, liquidity planning, exit readiness, and succession considerations. The firm- alongside their curated network of professionals- also offers specialized guidance for individuals evaluating relocation to Puerto Rico under Act 60, a tax incentive program that requires careful compliance and strategic planning.

Leadership Grounded in Experience and Vision

At the center of Sela Capital Group is Sloane Herman, who leads the firm as President with more than thirteen years of experience in financial services. Throughout her career, Sloane has helped drive significant business growth, build financial services organizations, and develop approaches to client engagement that challenge established industry norms. Her leadership philosophy rests on the conviction that exceptional wealth management requires innovation, accountability, collaboration, and a willingness to question longstanding conventions.

Alongside Sloane and the firm's leadership team is Luke Vanzo, Chief Investment Officer. Together they bring expertise across investment strategy, advanced tax planning, private market opportunities, estate coordination, business advisory, and jurisdictional planning. Collectively, that experience includes helping serve more than 900 families through previous financial services organizations, experience that shaped Sela's commitment to combining sophisticated strategy with the personal attention of a boutique firm.

"I've never been interested in building something that looks like everyone else," said Herman. "If we're going to ask families to trust us with what they've spent a lifetime building, we owe them more than conventional thinking. We owe them innovation, relentless attention to detail, and the courage to look beyond what's always been done."

Sloane's vision centers on building a firm where the sophistication associated with larger financial institutions meets the personalized relationships and entrepreneurial spirit of a boutique advisory practice. That balance, she believes, allows the firm to serve clients whose financial complexity has outgrown traditional models.

The Meaning Behind the Name

The firm's identity is rooted in the meaning of its name. Sela is inspired by the biblical imagery of a rock and fortress, reflecting the firm's belief that enduring wealth must be built on a strong foundation. This philosophy shapes the firm's commitment to integrity, stewardship, and excellence in every client relationship.

Markets fluctuate, tax laws evolve, businesses transition, and generations change. Through all of these shifts, the firm maintains that a strong foundation matters. That conviction informs its guiding principles, which include placing fiduciary responsibilities at the center of advisory relationships, pursuing advanced strategies only when they address a meaningful client need, anticipating challenges rather than reacting to them, favoring coordination over fragmentation, and building relationships designed to last.

Wealth With Purpose

Beyond financial strategy, Sela Capital Group emphasizes stewardship and community impact. The firm believes wealth carries both opportunity and responsibility, and that generosity deserves the same intentionality clients bring to investing and wealth preservation.

The firm's team has supported organizations serving vulnerable children and families, including Casa Angelina in Guatemala and Mary's Home in Colorado Springs. Through charitable planning and community involvement, Sela encourages clients to approach philanthropy as an extension of their broader financial vision rather than as an afterthought.

Since establishing its presence in Colorado Springs, the firm has celebrated the opening of its headquarters, strengthened its involvement in the local business community, and continued building a team dedicated to raising the standard of personalized wealth management. More information about the firm and its services is available on the Sela Capital Group website, as well as through its profiles on Facebook and Instagram or by emailing [email protected].

Sela Capital Group represents a different vision for wealth management, one focused not simply on managing what clients have today, but on building the foundation for everything their wealth makes possible. For affluent families and successful business owners, the firm offers an approach defined by sophisticated strategy, enduring relationships, disciplined stewardship, and a commitment to excellence.

Janeena Chan, Teejay Marquez make self-care a priority with BlueWater Day Spa

Janeena Chan, Teejay Marquez make self-care a priority with BlueWater Day Spa 

Taking a break can be just as important as putting in the work. For Janeena Chan and Teejay Marquez, finding time to rest and care for themselves is a conscious choice that helps them navigate demanding schedules.   As BlueWater Day Spa ambassadors, they encourage others to make wellness a priority, from enjoying massages to establishing routines that allow the body and mind to recharge.   For Chan, an event host whose work requires adaptability and constant interaction with people, self-care means setting aside time to recover after a busy schedule. Actor and model Marquez, on the other hand, follows a routine that combines adequate sleep, exercise and regular massages to help him manage the physical demands of his profession.   Rest and reconnect   More than just delivering lines onstage, each event hosting for Chan comes with a different audience, setting and atmosphere, requiring her to prepare thoroughly while ensuring that guests remain engaged and comfortable.   “I love getting to meet different people from all walks of life and that it’s always a different setting and playground each time. As the master of ceremonies, you are responsible for the tone of the event and for the energy that you put out there,” Chan said in an interview with The Manila Times.    With the demands of her work, Chan considers scheduled breaks essential. She makes time for massages at BlueWater Day Spa, where she said treatments help ease muscle tension and discomfort.   “Scheduling days where I can be off and be allowed to relax is definitely a must. My non-negotiables are having my favorite massages at BlueWater Day Spa. Their therapists are all so well trained at removing all the knots in my tired muscles and alleviating the pain in my body,” Chan said.   When visiting BlueWater, she prefers treatments that allow her to relax without worrying about her workload. She particularly enjoys the spa’s signature Traditional Filipno massage or the Authentic Chiang Mai Thai Massage which she said helps address areas of discomfort after a hectic week.   “I usually look for massages that will really target my pain points in my body, like yung mga lamig. I love their signature hilot massage, and knowing that I can turn my brain off for a few hours and just soak in the satisfying pamper session at BlueWater Day Spa,” she said.  For Chan, spa visits are also an opportunity to spend quality time with her mother and manager, Sally Chan.   “Actually, it is my favorite bonding activity together with my mom and manager, Mommy Sally. We spend most of our time working together, so getting to be pampered together is such a treat that we always look forward to,” she said.   She added that the spa’s atmosphere makes the experience particularly enjoyable.   “The spa really sets a conducive atmosphere where we can really rest, unwind and feel rejuvenated right after,” Chan said.   Her partnership with BlueWater also reflects her advocacy for wellness and health awareness. Chan, who said she experienced Bell’s palsy 10 years ago, hopes to use her platform to encourage people to pay attention to their well-being and avoid taking their health for granted.   “I’m truly so grateful to be their new ambassador, and I feel like it’s also such a fitting partnership because I am such an advocate for wellness, being a massage and spa fan myself,” she said.    “Also, being a Bell’s palsy awareness advocate, having half my face paralyzed 10 years ago due to stress and lack of real rest, it’s all a great opportunity for me to use my voice in reminding my community to not take their health for granted and prioritize their wellness,” she added.     Building recovery into routine   Like Chan, Marquez recognizes that maintaining a demanding career requires attention to personal well-being.  “Despite all the shoots and events I attend, I always make sure to get at least eight hours of sleep daily. I also find time to work out for one to two hours and treat myself to a really good massage at least once a week to help my body recover,” Marquez said.   His approach to self-care has evolved as he has become more conscious of his health.  “For me, self-care is a reward I give myself after a series of demanding schedules. Especially now that I’m not getting any younger anymore, I’ve learned to prioritize my health and wellness,” the actor noted.   Marquez was already a regular client of BlueWater Day Spa before becoming an ambassador. He said the treatments and personalized service have kept him returning to the wellness establishment.   “Being a BlueWater brand ambassador is truly meaningful to me because it aligns with something I genuinely value: self-care, relaxation and overall wellness. This partnership is more than just representing a brand. It’s about promoting the importance of taking a step back, recharging and giving ourselves the care we deserve,” he said.    “I’m a big fan of massages, so my favorite treatment at BlueWater Day Spa is the Athlete’s Massage. It’s the perfect treatment to relieve muscle tension, help my body recover and recharge after a long day. It’s definitely one of my go-to treatments,” Marquez said.  For people who struggle to make time for themselves because of professional demands, Marquez advises putting health first. He views personal well-being as an investment that should not be sacrificed for work.   “My advice is to always prioritize your health and well-being above everything else. At the end of the day, our body is our greatest investment, especially when our work demands so much of our time and energy,” he said.    Indeed for Chan and Marquez, prioritizing wellness means recognizing that caring for oneself is essential to showing up for work, family and the people who matter.    Branches and services   BlueWater Day Spa offers a range of treatments, including Traditional Filipino Massage, Traditional Balinese Massage, Swedish Massage, Chiang Mai Thai Massage, Athlete’s Massage, and body scrubs. Hand and foot treatments are also available.   Guests may visit BlueWater Day Spa at Eton Square along Ortigas Avenue in Greenhills, San Juan (0917-815-6659), open daily from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m.; One Banawe Plaza on Banawe Street in Quezon City, (0947-896-5075), open daily from 2 p.m. to 11 p.m.; at Estancia Mall at Capitol Commons in Pasig, at 0917-881-0092, open Monday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
