Byron Sheffield

First Vice President–Wealth Management

Byron was inspired to become a Financial Advisor at a young age by what he calls the “Story of Two Grandparents.” His father’s family in Tallahassee owned a small auto-body shop, whereas his mother’s family in Atlanta participated in retirement savings plans through their corporate careers. Both sets of grandparents retired successfully, however each taking very different paths to financial security. From this, Byron understood the value of financial education and trusted partnerships along the journey, and brings this insight with him into each client relationship; different backgrounds and conversations can make a world of difference for you and your family. 

Byron joined UBS in 2023, bringing with him nearly a decade of experience in the financial services industry. Byron chose UBS, a global wealth management firm that caters to affluent families, executives, institutions, and business owners to expand his solutions and advice for clients. More specifically, Byron is excited to continue building upon his experience in providing exceptional service, advanced planning and global financial investments, research, and tailored advice to clientele. Byron is passionate about being a trusted financial planning partner to his clients and helping them enjoy what they work so hard to achieve.
