I had the opportunity to intern at QFA this past fall and it was by far the best internship I had throughout all of college. Joe knows so much about the industry and cares so much about each and every employee and client. Him and Steven were so great to work for and we’re even better mentors. I would highly recommend anyone to use QFA if you’re seeking any sort of investment management needs or advice!

The team at Quantum Financial Advisors has been amazing with my business and personal finances. When I first reached out to them, I was a complete novice and did not know where to begin. QFA was able to make my personal and business finances inclusive to the bigger picture. The best thing is that QFA was judgement free and able to build a great relationship that encouraged my progression.
In a short period of time, I've received promising high returns on my investments and created a comprehensive financial business plan that has proved very rewarding. They curated a thorough process where patience

I interned for QFA during my gap year prior to college and it was one of the most invaluable learning opportunities of my life. Mr. Rinaldi and Mr. Nunez exposed me to a broad range of experiences that helped me better understand the market and finance industry and I am incredibly grateful to be entering college with the experience that few students graduate with.

I have been working at Quantum Financial Advisors as an intern for three months and the experience here is great. The working environment here is comfortable and colleagues here are easygoing. I’m mainly responsible for doing company research, M & A analysis and equity research. There are always some new things to learn and that’s what I think make this experience exciting and valuable.
Furthermore, what makes this an outstanding opportunity to learn and grow is that Mr. Rinaldi took me to a meeting with other financial advisors at the Capital Grille in Chevy Chase MD. The topic was timely

I have been with Quantum Financial Advisors for about 1 year now and I'm so excited to see what they have in store for my portfolio! I was very impressed and happy with the way that they got me out of a huge financial disaster, helping me each step of the way with retrieving funds from my IRA that had been used for a fraudulent hedge fund. I am grateful for their patience, knowledge, expertise, and integrity and most of all, their INCLUSIVE, straight forward approach to helping me understand exactly what was going on with my funds. I am looking forward to bigger and better things with Quantum

I worked at Quantum Financial Advisors as an intern and cannot express enough how much I learned in a short amount of time. The valuable experience that I gained working there helped shape me into the employee I am today. The firms President and CIO Joe Rinaldi always had an open door policy and would never hesitate to reach out to us and teach us valuable skills to help us grow as professionals, which is a quality that is hard to come by in the finance world. I would recommend Quantum Financial Advisors 10/10 times.

I had an awesome internship experience at Quantum this summer. Mr. Rinaldi, the firm's President and CIO, gave me the opportunity to really learn about the industry as well as prospecting, research, and using Bloomberg. He also was a great help with my resume, job search, and introductions to get interviews. Great firm!

Steven is a great boss who is easy to approach and willing to answer any finance / work-related questions. Overall, great learning experience!

Amazing company to work for. Dedicated staff and great financial services offered. CIO Joseph Rinaldi is extremely knowledgable about investments and has vast experience in the field. Offers clients personalized products and doesn't push for products that don't match the clients needs/ investment ideals. Mr. Steven Nunez is a great boss, easy to work for and eager to teach interns as most as he can. Would recommend the company to family and friends.

I am currently a student at University of Maryland planning to major in Finance. I was given the opportunity to intern at Quantum Financial Advisors during the Fall semester. Since then, I have continuously learned about how a financial services company operates and gained some knowledge about the financial markets as well. This experience has been amazing. Furthermore, everybody in the office is kind and the ambiance makes you feel very comfortable.
