Matt Rindels, Operations Associate

I am a California native and grew up in Manteca, CA.  My dad was a pastor of a few churches throughout my life, so our family was always involved in ministry.  From a young age, I was taught the importance of being careful with money, as failing to do so could lead to a myriad of problems.  As an adult, I got a degree in psychology, did mission work in Peru for a few years, worked in sales, but did not get involved in finance until my later 20’s.  I worked at a bank for a few years and talked with many advisors and became interested in helping others achieve their financial goals as I saw that the average person seemed to neglect the urgency of preparing for the future.  Shortly thereafter I obtained several financial licenses and began working for a broker dealer as a registered representative. 

In my free time I enjoy being involved in my church’s Young Professionals ministry, writing songs and playing music with my friends, and playing chess.  I am an avid traveler and have been to 14 countries and 35 states.

If money was no object, what would you do all day? Play guitar, create an elaborate music studio, and dive deep into music production.
