Charlie Thomas, CFP®, MBA
Lead Advisor
As a Lead Advisor, Charlie supports our Senior Advisors in providing comprehensive financial planning and investment management. He relishes his role in helping clients achieve goals such as a comfortable retirement and financial freedom.
While Charlie was growing up, he saw firsthand the need for solid retirement planning at the assisted-living facility that his parents owned. Entering college, he knew he wanted to work in finance, but it was an internship that prompted him into a career as a fiduciary financial advisor.
To that end, he attained the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) certification in 2024.
