Jim joined RBC Wealth Management in 2018 as the first advisor hired for their new office in Nashville, Tennessee. Prior to joining, he was a Managing Director-Investments with Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC, for nearly 10 years, where he was recognized as a member of their Premier Advisor group. Recently, he was named to the 2022 National Association of Plan Advisors’ (NAPA) Top DC Advisor Teams Award which was announced in 2023. Jim is also a member to the Retirement Advisors Council, a national organization of 150 members made up of advisors, asset managers and defined contribution service providers. These designations were earned by working with individuals and institutional clients, leading them through a refined and disciplined process to build a strategic framework and clarify their financial objectives.
In addition to his tenure at Wells Fargo, Jim’s experiences have been developed over 26 years of working with nationally prominent employee benefit consulting and investment firms. These firms offered him a global view of institutional retirement plan management, trusts, and individual high-net-worth portfolio construction. This holistic view has led him to build AID Wealth Solutions Group and promote the benefit for firms of using an advisory service that can offer insight and guidance on a multitude of issues related to retirement plans.
Jim received his Bachelor of Business Administration degree from Middle Tennessee State University and has attained the Accredited Investment Fiduciary (AIF®) certification from Fi360.
