Angela Ellison

As a Vice President and Senior Financial Advisor at Merrill, I help individuals, families, and professionals bring structure, clarity, and confidence to their long‑term financial decision making.

I believe great financial guidance begins with listening. Before building any strategy, I take the time to understand what matters most-your goals, concerns, family priorities, timelines, and life transitions. My role is to simplify complex decisions, reduce the stress often associated with financial choices, and provide full transparency around potential risks and opportunities.

By combining personalized guidance with Merrill's investment insights and the banking convenience of Bank of America, I support clients across a range of needs, including:

• Long-term investment strategies
• Multigenerational planning
• Retirement preparation and income considerations
• Cash flow and liquidity planning
• Education planning
• Navigating life transitions with clarity and confidence

My approach is grounded in education, collaboration, and thoughtful communication. I view financial planning as an ongoing relationship-one built on trust, stability, and consistent engagement.

Prior to joining Merrill Lynch Wealth Management in 2016, Angela worked in the defense contracting industry for over 5 years. Angela holds a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from Michigan State University. Angela and her husband, Bradley, live in Washington DC.
