Newly rebranded RIA adds two Seattle firms in its first deals since unveiling new identity
Composition Wealth, a national registered investment advisor, which last week rebranded from Miracle Mile Advisors, today announced its acquisition of two Seattle-area wealth management firms with a combined $930 million in client assets. The additions of Vinoble Group ($630 million in assets under management) and Unionview Wealth Partners ($300 million in assets under management) mark the firm's first transactions under its new identity, adding two new chapters to its book of business, and boosting its total client assets to $8.6 billion including newly acquired assets (as of 2/28/25).
The transactions follow a period of substantial growth for Composition Wealth, which has completed six acquisitions since 2023, adding over $2.5 billion in client assets.
“These partnerships expand our presence in Seattle while staying true to our vision of bringing together accomplished advisors who share our client-first approach,” said Bruce Milam, Chief Executive Officer of Composition Wealth. “Both firms have built impressive practices by taking time to understand their clients' individual needs and creating comprehensive solutions. This approach aligns perfectly with our commitment to helping clients craft their own financial success stories.”
Vinoble Group brings a 15-person team led by Brian Johnson, who will join Composition Wealth as a Partner, Wealth Advisor along with his full team. Founded as an independent RIA in 2016 after departing from a full-service brokerage firm, Vinoble serves over 400 clients with comprehensive wealth management, group benefits consulting, and tax planning services. The firm expanded in 2020 through local mergers to enhance its service capabilities.
“By joining the Composition Wealth team, we have the ability to tap into an expanded service offering that will directly benefit our clients while maintaining our client service philosophy,” Johnson said.
Unionview Wealth Partners, established in 2009, is led by Managing Partner Katie Pieper and Partner Craig Hanson, CFA, who will both become Partner, Wealth Advisors at Composition Wealth. The firm serves high-net-worth families with customized portfolio management and financial planning.
“Composition Wealth's commitment to comprehensive wealth management aligns perfectly with how we've always served our clients and provides us with additional capabilities to support their long-term success,” Pieper said.
“These new additions to our team reflect our commitment to enhancing our service capabilities across our entire organization,” said Nate Angelo, Head of Wealth Management at Composition Wealth. “Brian and his team bring valuable expertise in group benefits consulting and tax planning, creating a symbiotic relationship that strengthens our comprehensive service model. By integrating these specialized capabilities, we can offer even more holistic solutions to clients across all our markets while maintaining the personalized approach that defines Composition Wealth.”
The teams will operate from Composition Wealth's Seattle office, with full integration expected by Q3 2025. MarshBerry served as financial advisor to Vinoble Group and Advisor Growth Strategies served as a transaction advisor to Unionview Wealth Partners.
