The Atkinson McGowan Becker Team
Merrill Lynch Wealth Management
Welcome

Headquartered in Frederick, Maryland, The Atkinson McGowan Becker Team provides customized wealth and investment advice to a select group of individuals and families. Led by Merrill veteran T.J. Atkinson, Cindy Streett, Keenan Becker, and Annette Nicolay the team differentiates its approach through the caliber of its strategies and the sincerity of its client commitment. Long-term relationships are the hallmark of the team’s service model; the group is privileged to work with multiple generations of client families—some of whom span four generations. Whatever a client’s life stage or path to wealth, the team embraces the opportunity to deliver extraordinary service, cemented through ongoing efforts to advance each client’s goals with precision and care. Client referrals are the primary source of new relationships, a fact that both gratifies and humbles the team. “We’re proud to become part of client families,” T.J. explains, “and they, in turn, become part of ours.”
