Marco DiVito
Marco Divito is a Founding Partner and Senior Financial Advisor at Core Wealth Strategies, where he draws on more than 13 years of experience in financial services. Marco is known for his client-first approach, offering not just financial advice but lasting perspective and collaboration. Marco was named to the 2025 and 2026 Forbes Best In-State Wealth Management Teams Award Recipient list, Marco is known for his relationship-driven approach, blending strategic expertise with an authentic passion for guiding people through life’s most important financial decisions.
Helping people connect the dots between where they are and where they want to go is what Marco loves most. It’s something he’s always been drawn to, even before he found this career path. Marco’s path wasn’t traditional. He studied biology at Arizona State University, planning to become a dentist like his father and brother. But he quickly realized that while dentistry was their calling, his was different. He’s always loved being the connector and the person who helps others find what they need, when they need it most. That’s what led him to finance.
Marco began his career at Wells Fargo in Scottsdale well over a decade ago, taking on roles that built his foundation in planning, investing, and most importantly, listening. In 2017, he joined forces with his partner Rocco Bianchi to build a practice rooted in personal relationships and clear, actionable advice. What he’s learned over the years is that people don’t need complexity, they just need clarity and a solution. Marco isn’t here to impress with professional jargon. He’s here to try and offer perspective, partnership, and a plan they can all get behind.
His favorite part of his job are the moments a plan clicks with someone, when he can see they understand not just what they’re doing, but why. Whether it’s adjusting for a new baby, a business opportunity, or a surprise life curveball, Marco enjoys the strategic problem-solving that keeps their goals in motion.
He’s a proud husband and dad. Marco and his wife, Kiva, are fully immersed in the adventure of raising their son, Roman, and they’re loving the ride (even the chaotic moments).
Before Roman came along, they were devoted dog parents to their bichon poodle, Teddy. They lost him recently, but he played a big role in preparing them for parenthood in his own way. He taught them about patience, routine, and unconditional love. Lessons that undoubtedly still guide them today.
Family time is big for Marco. One of his favorite traditions is Sunday dinners with his parents in North Phoenix, especially when his mom’s cooking. They’re also big “lake people.” Some of their best days are spent outdoors on the water, or in the woods, or just enjoying the peace that comes with stepping back for a bit. The balance between nature, family, and stillness keeps Marco grounded.
When he gets a chance, he loves sneaking out for a round of golf. It’s his way to reset, challenge himself, and clear his head. Travel has always been a shared passion too, and Marco and his family are excited to explore new places together when the time feels right.
