His consistent and unwavering focus, especially in times of economic uncertainty, will prove invaluable to Stride’s clients.

“For decades, the wealth management team at Stride has helped clients manage their assets with the highest level of care, diligence and thoughtful planning. I am incredibly excited to join this team of professionals and expand the client-centric foundation they have built,” said Brad .
