When working with our clients, we strive to be comprehensive-not complex. In this "instant gratification" world we live in today; we begin by creating a plan and putting it in front of the process. This allows our clients to stay on track for short/mid/long term planning strategies. In 2013, I left the healthcare sector and joined Northwestern Mutual. I was initially attracted to the financial industry because it continued to assist in me helping others- with the hope of positively influencing my clients future financially. In 2019 a new chapter opened in my practice, Two Rivers Wealth. Erik Hsu and I have worked together at Northwestern Mutual for the past 7 years. We came together around a shared vision to build a firm with the values, expertise, and longevity to serve the evolving needs of our clients and their families for generations to come. In addition to being a financial advisor and partner of Two Rivers Wealth, I play a dual role as a Growth and Development Director (GDD). Creating an impact in the lives of others has always been a passion of mine and as a GDD I am able to recruit and develop new financial representatives. In my dual role, I am responsible for growing a team of like-minded individuals to be successful financial representatives. I work diligently to mentor new reps as they build their businesses. Balancing both of my roles I have been given an amazing opportunity to help more people than I ever imagined. A few things you need to know about me: My philosophy: you become what you think about. What sets me apart from others? Understanding our client needs, and continually developing a relationship with the client, their family, or business. When I am not working with my clients I enjoy spending time with my family, bow hunting, fly fishing, and Atlanta Braves baseball. Lets Connect: brian.hope@nm.com 318-550-2706 brianhope.nm.com
