Modern Wealth Management Orland Park
Formerly OFM Wealth
The Chicago southwest suburbs are home to a wide range of families and professionals who share a common need: a financial plan that keeps pace with their lives. For many clients in this community, that also means finding an advisor who understands not just the mechanics of wealth management, but the human circumstances behind it.
Managing Director Sam Ogrizovich and his wife, Jane, are proud supporters of many charities, including Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana, Mercy Home for Boys and Girls, and Purdue University’s Food Science and Natural Resource/Environmental Science programs. Sam understands that he’s far from being alone when it comes to being charitably inclined in the Chicagoland, and wants to make sure that the clients of the Modern Wealth Orland Park office are structuring their donations in a way that makes the most sense for the charity and client.
Throughout her 30-plus-year career, Managing Director Cris Marik has been inspired by her experience of helping her mother navigate the financial aftermath of her father’s sudden death, Cris leans on that experience as she guides women through the financial decisions that follow divorce or the loss of a spouse. Cris, Sam, and the rest of the Modern Wealth Orland Park team work alongside the firm’s subject matter specialists to build long-term plans that are designed to give clients confidence in their financial future. The Modern Wealth Orland Park team, which includes multiple advisors with the CFP® Professional designation, brings that depth of experience to families and individuals throughout Chicagoland.
Enjoy. Prepare. Connect.
At Modern Wealth Management Orland Park, our goal is the same as it is across every office in our network: to help you enjoy today, prepare for tomorrow, and connect with the causes and the people you care about most. That’s what drives every conversation we have, every plan we build, and every review we conduct alongside you.
A Team That Works Together for You
Your Orland Park advisor team includes two Managing Directors with CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® (CFP®) credentials and one who also holds the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA) designation.

Advantage Offerings: Orland Park
Tax Planning
Keep more of what you’ve earned, all year long.
A good tax strategy isn’t something you think about in April. Your Orland Park advisor team works alongside Modern Wealth’s tax professionals year-round to align your investment decisions with your tax situation, optimize the timing of income and distributions, and make sure you’re not overpaying. For clients going through major life transitions, including divorce or the loss of a spouse, tax planning in that transition year and the years following can make a meaningful difference to your long-term financial picture.
Investment Management
Investments that reflect your goals and connect to your plan.
Managing Director Cris Marik holds both the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA) and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® (CFP®) designations, a combination that reflects a rigorous, research-driven approach to both portfolio construction and comprehensive financial planning. Your Orland Park advisor team builds portfolios aligned with your specific goals and risk tolerance, using a disciplined approach built on low-cost index funds and ETFs, complemented by individual securities where they add real value. We work with you to align your investment strategy with your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance, and stay connected to your plan as markets and life change.
Estate Planning
Protecting the people and causes you care about most.
Estate planning is about more than the right documents. It’s about making sure your wishes are clear, legally sound, and woven into every part of your financial plan. For clients who have recently gone through a divorce or lost a spouse, a full estate plan review is one of the most important steps in resetting your financial life on your own terms. Your Orland Park advisor team works alongside Modern Wealth’s estate planning specialists to align your wills, trusts, beneficiary designations, and succession plans with your current goals and circumstances.
Insurance Planning
Planning for the unexpected.
A strong financial plan protects what you’ve built against what you can’t predict. Your Orland Park advisor team evaluates your existing coverage, identifies gaps, and recommends solutions that integrate with your broader financial plan, preserving your lifestyle and your assets so that life’s unexpected moments don’t derail the progress you’ve worked hard to make.

FAQs
OFM Wealth became Modern Wealth Management in April 2025. OFM Wealth was built by Sam and Jane Ogrizovich and served families and individuals throughout the Chicago southwest suburbs for many years. Sam, Cris Marik, and the full Orland Park team continue serving their clients from the same location with the same fiduciary commitment their clients have trusted, now backed by the full Modern Wealth Advantage.
Yes, and it’s a specialization that comes from a deeply personal place. Managing Director Cris Marik was inspired to enter this field after her own father’s sudden death, when she helped her mother successfully navigate the financial decisions that come in the aftermath of losing a spouse. In the nearly 30 years since, she has guided both women and men through the financial changes that follow divorce or widowhood, such as account transitions, income reassessment, estate plan revision, investment reallocation, and the process of building a financial plan that reflects your life on your own terms. If you’re going through one of these transitions, you’re not alone, and your advisor team has been through this process with many clients before you.
The immediate priorities are different depending on the circumstances, but in general they include updating beneficiary designations on all accounts and insurance policies, retitling accounts that were held jointly, reviewing and revising your estate documents, reassessing your income picture and building a revised budget, and reviewing your insurance coverage as a single person. On the investment side, the portfolio that made sense when you were planning as a couple may need to be restructured for your individual goals, timeline, and risk tolerance. Your Orland Park advisor team will walk through every one of these steps with you, at whatever pace makes sense for your situation.
A Registered Investment Advisor is a person or firm that provides investment advice and manages portfolios on behalf of clients. RIAs are registered with the SEC or state securities regulators and are held to a fiduciary standard, which requires them to act in the client's best interest and disclose material conflicts of interest. When you work with a Modern Wealth advisor in Orland Park, you're working with an RIA whose only job is to help you reach your goals.
Fiduciary is more than a word we use in our marketing. It’s a legal standard established under the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, requiring our advisors to act in your best interest at all times, eliminate or fully disclose any conflicts of interest, and place your goals above everything else. The Modern Wealth Annapolis team has operated under this standard throughout their careers. Your goals come first, by law and by commitment.
Managing Director Sam Ogrizovich is a CFP® professional who built OFM Wealth over many years serving Chicagoland clients. Managing Director Cris Marik holds the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA) and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® (CFP®) designations, has been in wealth management since 1997, and earned her degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Lead Advisors Brendan Nuzzo and Matthew Schaap both hold the CFP® professional designation. The team also includes Erica Zambrano, who brings more than 28 years of experience in the investment and wealth management field to client service.
We believe your investments should support your goals, not the other way around. Your Orland Park advisor team builds portfolios aligned with your specific goals and timeline, using a disciplined approach built on low-cost index funds and ETFs, complemented by individual securities where they add real value. We work with you to align your investment strategy with your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance.
Our compensation comes directly from you, our client. It never comes from commissions, referral fees, or third-party payments of any kind.

The best way to find out is to start with your Modern Confidence Score. Our Concierge team will assess where you stand across all areas of your financial life, including taxes, estate, insurance, investments, and overall planning. They’ll answer your questions about our services and connect you with the right advisor for your needs. We work primarily with individuals and families who have $500,000 or more in investable assets, though we evaluate each situation individually. At minimum, you’ll come away with useful perspective, and we think you’ll get a clear sense of whether this is the right partnership.
Every client’s financial life is different, but the outcomes we work toward are the same across every relationship: to help people enjoy today with confidence for tomorrow, connecting them with the people and causes they care about most. That's what the Modern Wealth Advantage is built to deliver. And it starts with a conversation.
