Joshua M. Young, CFP, CEPA

Senior Vice President–Wealth Management

Helping business owners transition out of their businesses on a tax-advantaged basis is at the heart of my work. My goal is to ensure that owners can take care of themselves, their families, their employees, and the causes they care about—both now and in the future.

With a deep understanding of financial planning and wealth management, I specialize in guiding business owners and their companies through complex exit strategies. I help my clients navigate the post-transaction work, including ESOP repurchase obligation planning, creative diversification, and charitable giving solutions that benefit both the client and their community.

Since beginning my financial planning career in 1996, I have remained committed to a holistic approach that integrates every aspect of my clients’ financial lives. I earned my B.S. in Finance from The Ohio State University’s Max M. Fisher College of Business and hold the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM designation. As a Senior Portfolio Manager and an honored member of the UBS Portfolio Management Program, I leverage my expertise to develop tailored, strategic plans that help clients achieve financial security and lasting impact.
