Meet the team — who we are

RBC Wealth Management has over a century of experience serving clients. We chose to partner with RBC not only because of its financial strength and global reach, but because it has retained the culture, feel and service accessibility of a boutique firm, despite being the seventh largest brokerage in the U.S. as ranked by assets under administration and by number of financial advisors.* In addition to carefully choosing this company, we decided to form the Conner Wealth Management Group so that we can deliver three critical things to our clients:

  • Comprehensive and holistic wealth planning
  • Professionally managed investments
  • World class service
