Welcome

The power of a dedicated team approach
Who We Are
Life rarely moves in a straight line, and neither do your finances. The real challenge is finding someone you can trust with the things that matter most: your family, your money, your hopes for the future. Someone who listens without judgment, stays with you through every season, and offers far more than just stock recommendations.
For more than three decades, Susan Sorrells has guided high-net-worth individuals and multiple generations of families through their wealth management needs with care and understanding. In 2024, Susan expanded her practice to meet the demands of a growing client base. Today she’s supported by Financial Advisor Belva Evans and Registered Client Associate Savannah McClure. Together, they take a long-term, relationship-based approach, guiding your decisions for every stage of your life and every generation of your family.
When you call our office, we want to talk with you, whether you’re facing a challenging situation or just want to say hello. As our client, you gain more than a single advisor — you gain the collective knowledge and experience of our entire team. Each of us brings deep academic credentials, professional expertise, and financial training to address every aspect of your wealth management needs. And because continuity matters to us, our goal is to remain a dedicated source of advice and guidance for multiple generations of your family for many years to come.
