Chris Ginther CFP®, CRPC®, MBA, APMA®

I began my financial professional career at Merrill Lynch in 2002 and have since worked for UBS and Ameriprise before becoming an independent financial representative clearing through LPL. My journey in finance has been driven by a passion for helping families achieve their unique milestones. I find great satisfaction in utilizing my knowledge and experience to provide guidance and trusted advice over the years. The ever-evolving complexities of the financial markets captivate me, and I am committed to understanding the economic and financial drivers that impact portfolios and, ultimately, lives. I strive to translate complex market issues into easy-to-understand discussions, fostering strong, trust-based relationships with my clients.

Originally from a small town in Ohio, my upbringing instilled a strong financial mindset shaped by the understanding that I had to earn what I wanted. This lesson was reinforced as I worked multiple jobs to pay for college. I've been married to my wife, Lisa, for nearly 26 years. Lisa, originally from California, has been a flight attendant for Delta Air Lines since 1991, a role that has allowed us to enjoy great travel experiences. We have two daughters, Natalie, a recent Cornell graduate heading to Boston College for her Masters in Social Work, and Catie, who is studying business at UNC Chapel Hill. Outside of work, I'm an avid golfer and enjoy traveling, a good glass of wine, and using my engineering skills for home projects.
