Justin M. Padgett -
I began my career at Valeo as an Intern in January 2018, and I was drawn to the company for a variety of reasons: collaborative work environment, clear career progression/timeline, and passion to change the finance industry. Our internship program provided me the opportunities to work on projects that directly impacted our clients, participate in a client meeting, and gain valuable industry experience towards acquiring my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification. It was clear from the start that our employees care about the service each client receives, along with teaching our interns and younger advisors the necessary skills to succeed and improve every day. My internship at Valeo was invaluable to my career.
Audra Ames -
I enjoy helping develop young, talented, caring advisors who start from scratch and end up with careers that exceed what more experienced advisors, at other firms would have to do the old way. I also enjoy what the compensation system does to force us to think what is best for the client and that my family benefits from what we are building if we do it well together vs alone.
