Executive Vice President, National Division

Welcome to the Tennessee Branch of AXA Advisors, LLC.

  

At the Tennessee Branch of AXA Advisors, we strive for excellence in all things.  Our clients expect a best-in-class experience and they deserve it, as many trust their life savings to us.  Quality advice begins with quality advisors.  We are picky with regards to who we hire at AXA.  Education, reputation and prior history are carefully scrutinized prior to any advisor joining our firm, and many candidates are turned away each month.  The select associates we hire are put through a rigorous training program, where they are instructed not only on sound financial strategies, but how to uncover what indeed is important to each individual client.  Finally, unlike many firms, we encourage partnerships or a team approach to planning.  Rarely will a client meet with just one advisor. 

 Our seasoned advisors are also given numerous opportunities to keep up with new trends and updated strategies, which can benefit our numerous clients.   Several of our associates have been educated at the Wharton School, and many have attained the credential of Retirement Planning Specialist through Wharton. 

 Whether you are an individual wanting to insure your family, or the leader of a large organization with more complex challenges, rest assured that our AXA Advisors team stands ready to help you address whatever financial needs you may have.  We look forward to the opportunity to serve you. 

 If you are interest in a career as a financial professional, or would like to meet one of our professionals, please contact our office at 615-292-5043.
