Jerrey A. Thurston, CFP®, CIMA®, CPWA®, CEPA®
Managing Director–Wealth Management
Private Wealth Advisor
Jerrey's first encounter with the financial services industry was as a client of an advisor while he was still playing professional baseball. His experience proved successful on the investing side but it sorely lacked the personal connection that Jerrey was looking for from an advisor. After his 12 years in baseball with such organizations as the San Diego Padres, Chicago Cubs, Houston Astros, Anaheim Angels, Montreal Expos and Cincinnati Reds, Jerrey used his own personal experience to realize that he wanted to provide the financial services experience to successful individuals and business owners the way he believed it should be done.
Every business owner will have an exit one day. Are you prepared? Jerrey helps business owners navigate the 5 D's of exiting a business to help them ensure they can control their own destiny and transition on their terms.
As a Certified Exit Planning Advisor, Jerrey focuses on helping you make informed decisions so you can leverage the value of your largest and most important asset, your business, to help you create a legacy for the people and causes you care most about. You have a vision for your future but may not have developed a plan to achieve it. By applying over 20+ years of experience in guiding individuals toward success, Jerrey couples business transition advice with tailored personal financial planning.
Areas of focus: exit planning, succession planning, cash flow management, post-sale planning, legacy planning, philanthropy, financial education, family planning, along with multigenerational wealth transfers, investment management, trust planning, and lending solutions.
Jerrey was born and raised in Seminole County and now he, his wife, and their two daughters call Belle Isle home. Jerrey is active in the community and enjoys playing golf and watching his daughters play lacrosse for Duke and Stanford.
