Jessica Anderson, CPWA, CFP, CIMA

Senior Vice President–Wealth Management

CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER®

Everyone told Jessica she should be in financial services to use her mathematical skills. When she finally decided that it was time to take everyone's advice and try her hand in the financial world, she realized that she needed in-depth knowledge to really help clients make the best decisions. She immediately started studying for the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM certification.  Working with clients and helping them with the transitions in life has been an amazing and gratifying experience.

Today, with nearly 30 years of experience in financial services, Jessica still finds it rewarding to witness her clients living the life they've always imagined, and she knows that working with her team has made a difference. In fact, that's why she joined UBS in 2009—the firm shares her client-centric philosophy. 

 Professional Certifications and education

  • Certified Investment Management Analyst® (CIMA®)  
  • CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM 
  • Certified Private Wealth Advisor® (CPWA®)
  • Series 3, 7, 63 and 65 securities licenses

Life outside UBS  

While Jessica was previously president of both the Rutland Regional Medical Center and Chaffee Art Center, the role she most enjoys outside of UBS is that of proud mom. She loves seeing her children grow into contributing adults and teaching their children the same community values. They celebrate all holidays and include family and friends with enthusiasm.

Emilie Checrallah

Financial Advisor

Emilie is driven by helping clients take care of the people who are most important to them, through holistic advice. When it comes to finances, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Emilie helps people organize the big picture of their wealth through day-to-day attention to detail. She forges personal relationships with clients by talking with them about their personal and professional goals, needs, wants and wishes. Then a fully integrated financial plan is created for managing wealth comprehensively.

Prior to joining UBS in 2011, she worked in the marketing industry for 3 years. She routinely builds, monitors and reevaluates clients’ financial plans, as they drive accuracy of investment allocation and are always a work in progress-- as life events occur, risk tolerance changes and goals, needs and wants shift. 

Professional achievements and education

  • Series 7 and 66 securities licenses
  • M.B.A., Business Administration, Endicott College
  • B.A., Suffolk University

Life outside of UBS

She resides in the Seacoast region of New Hampshire with her husband, David, their children: Blake, Haylie, and Jack and their pack of rescue dogs. Emilie follows New England sports, enjoys boating, and 'all things water sports', and strives for marginal mediocrity in both skiing and golf.
