Tom Drake, CIMA®, CRPC®

Senior Vice President–Wealth Management

Growing up I struggled watching the people around me make poor decisions that created negative financial habits. I felt compelled to teach better behaviors utilizing proper financial management allowing me to ensure a lifetime of wealth for my clients and their future generations.  We strive to assist them in living their best life and I find satisfaction in knowing that I helped serve in that capacity.

It is my understanding that clients choose to work with me because of the amount of detail and care I put into planning, investment strategies and the quality of the discussions we have around the major financial decisions they are faced with.  By establishing these meaningful connections and taking the time to really understand each individual client by diving deep into the client’s beliefs, desires, and attitudes toward money we formulate a long-standing relationship that withstands the changes in their circumstances and market movements over time.

My attention to detail, moral principles based on the idea that hard work is fundamentally valuable and worth pursuing is reflected in the quality time I spend preparing, delivering, and executing on the solutions my clients and I come up with through transparency and meaningful collaboration and respect.
