Why I Became A Financial Advisor

October 6, 2020 By Brian Bloxom

By Brian Bloxom, CRPC and ChFEBCSM 

Many of us grow up learning what we are good at and what we enjoy doing with our time. If we’re lucky, our skills and passions line up and we have the privilege of having a fulfilling career. That’s exactly how I found my way into the financial industry. I have always had a mind for numbers and I wanted to make a difference in people’s lives by helping them make meaningful and impactful financial decisions.

Starting The Journey

Shortly after graduating from Mary Washington University with a bachelor’s degree in business administration, I started working as a financial advisor. I spent years gaining hands-on experience and adding to my knowledge, becoming a Chartered Federal Employee Benefits Consultant (ChFEBCSM). With more than two decades of work in the industry under my belt, I had a clearly defined vision of who I wanted to serve and how I wanted to help them. I decided to launch out and create Sentinel Wealth Partners to do just that.

My Career Today

Today, as an independent financial advisor, I serve retirees, individuals approaching retirement, and individuals managing complex retirement plans such as company plans or federal benefits plans. I am passionate about helping my clients solve problems so they can experience more peace of mind and optimism for retirement. There’s just nothing as fulfilling as celebrating with a client when they finally reach that retirement milestone and walk into their future with confidence. That, in a nutshell, is why I do what I do. I go to work every day to help others achieve their retirement goals. My clients trust me with their money and their future, and that is a privilege I do not take lightly.
