Our History
Built Through Experience. Shaped by Purpose.
The foundations of Tyson Smith Private Wealth Partners were laid long before the practice bore its present name.
Tyson Smith entered financial services in 1998, having already built and sold two businesses alongside his father. Nine years in military intelligence had taught him to test assumptions, weigh opposing views, and examine consequential questions from every angle. Those habits became the discipline of the practice.
Orlando became the practice's permanent home in 2003. There, The Tyson Smith Group grew the way enduring firms do: through lasting relationships, deepening capabilities, and the trust of clients across generations.
Fifteen years later, René Naranjo joined the practice. He has since risen to Vice President and now leads the firm alongside Tyson, pairing Tyson's strategic discipline with a gift for making complex matters understandable and a perspective that reaches beyond borders.
The team grew again in 2024 with the arrival of Tyson Smith Jr., whose background in finance and economics strengthened the practice's investment research and market analysis.
A new name followed in 2026, when The Tyson Smith Group became Tyson Smith Private Wealth Partners, a name that reflects both the families it serves and the team that serves them.
Through every chapter, the principles have remained the same: disciplined thinking, personal attention, careful stewardship, and a commitment to clients across generations.
