JOHN-PAUL PAVAO

…as Operations Supervisor

John-Paul was promoted to Operations Supervisor. Instead of splitting his time between working on financial plans and operations, he will work full time in Operations. Building on his experience, JP is responsible for client requests and relations with TD Ameritrade. He will be responsible for the company’s tech stack and software vendors. JP’s group will also assist clients with their personal portals.

JP is still interested in financial planning. He has almost completed the Certified Financial Planning program and will stay an integral part to support the planning group.

Previously, Assistant to Operations and Financial Planning

John-Paul (JP) served a dual role in the company that takes a special personality. He earned his Financial Paraplanner Qualified Professional certificate, so he can assist the financial planning team prepare plans. Since we meet with clients in pairs, JP is frequently our “second” to take notes and participate in the discussion.
