Managing Director Wealth Advisor Truist Bank

[MUSIC PLAYING] Chicago is a city known for working hard and working together. We see that. We try to live that every day. When we came to Truist, we didn't do it as individuals. We came here as an established wealth management team, wanting to be part of something collaborative and inspiring. And we found exactly that. Truist culture and core values are tailor made not only for our team, but for this city we love so much. Chicago is a melting pot of history, diversity, and opportunity. It's not only a city of neighborhoods, it's one big community. And community, that's what Truist is all about. Our purpose is to inspire and build better lives and communities. And we're making that happen in our backyard right here in the Windy City. Truist is bringing more than 100 years of history and experience to Chicago. And we know the difference hard work, commitment, and care can make. There's real power in making connections. That's how we've built this team, who all value trust, integrity, and service. That's how we bring those values. We're building our practice to operate like a family office, helping clients manage everything from planning to investments, trusts, and estates. And just like family, sometimes being a true advisor means we don't tell you what you want to hear. But we tell you what you need to hear. But it's all part of trying to do what's best for you now and in the future, even beyond just financial goals. We're about one thing-- caring for our clients and their families. We are Truist Wealth.
