I understand these individuals' specific financial challenges and work closely with them to develop personalized financial plans that meet their unique needs and objectives. Outside of work, I am a family-oriented person. I have been married for 33 years and have three grown children and a grandbaby I adore. I cherish my family and enjoy spending time with them.

Before founding LX Parker I served as a wealth manager and private banker at some of the top firms in the industry including: Silicon Valley Bank, Bank of America, USAA, and Ameriprise Financial. I also worked for $300B+ asset management firm, Dimensional Fund Advisors, where I was mentored by the co-CEO. As a CFP® professional, I am required to complete rigorous testing, experience, ethics and continuing education requirements covering investments, retirement, insurance, tax and estate planning. I am bound by the CFP Board's Code of Ethics and am required to put client's interest ahead of my own at all times. I graduated cum laude from Lehigh University at age 20 while pursuing a double major in Finance and Marketing and a double minor in Entrepreneurship and Music Business. I earned my MBA from the University of Texas at Austin where I received the Dean's Leadership Award and was the Inaugural Texas Venture Labs Scholar. On the weekend I recharge my batteries in East Texas at LX Parker Ranch where we use regenerative farming practices to sustainably grow organic hay and grass fed beef on the very land where my ancestors were once enslaved. If I'm not at the ranch, then I'm at church playing the piano for Sunday service.' I met my wife, Christy, at a church summer camp when we were 12 years old. I had a crush on her and she didn't like me. Fast forward, we have been married for over 13 years. We have three wonderful sons Logan (5), Xavier (2) and Parker (infant). LX Parker... See what I did there ;-). If you made it this far you should go ahead and schedule a complimentary consultation.

Doug Gibson has helped countless individuals and business owners navigate the many challenges investors face daily. His philosophy is simple, have a plan, and play it S.A.F.E. The S.A.F.E investment philosophy is simple, the market is unpredictable but by having a disciplined approach and focusing on the factors we CAN control, we can significantly improve the ability for clients to achieve their goals. Those factors are Strategy, Allocation, Fees, and Expenses. Adhering to this philosophy along with a tax centric, comprehensive financial plan, his clients have total transparency, and a vital understanding of their financial objectives. By putting the needs of his clients first and using the S.A.F.E investing philosophy he pioneered, his clients not only understand the implications of financial decisions but can make the ones that will have a positive impact on their financial future.

About SMART Group Houston

SMART Group Houston

SMART Group Houston is not your ordinary Financial Services firm. Most firms are transactional, focusing strictly on the accumulation of assets using arbitrary risk/reward criteria to select financial products. In our experience taking on additional risk will not necessarily yield greater returns. We approach our clients finances from a broader perspective. We focus not just on accumulating wealth but protecting it as well. We focus not just on your immediate needs, but how each piece fits in within your entire financial strategy. Our approach enables us to identify opportunities that other firms may, and usually do, overlook. We look for ways to make your money work harder for you in ways that you might never have imagined. We have found that many common investment strategies seriously underestimate the challenges facing you as you transition into other phases of your financial journey. Ultimately, we strive to give each client the opportunity to spend less time worrying about their portfolio and wondering whether your money will be enough to give you the financial freedom you expect. We do this, not through unrealistically optimistic and risky investments, but through a comprehensive strategy that outlines the ideal path to your financial success. In our view, taxes remain one of the biggest risks to wealth creation and accumulation. Every dollar is taxed in 4 ways, when you EARN it, when you GROW it, when you SPEND it, and when you PASS AWAY. At SMART Group, we won't file last years tax returns, but we will do your FUTURE tax returns by providing you with custom strategies designed to help you save taxes in each of the 4 phases of taxation. Our team of licensed CFP's and CPA's will help guide you throughout each step of your financial journey.

Jerry serves as an investment advisor at Beck Capital Management (BCM), guiding his clients to their appropriate portfolio type, as well as providing a financial plan that will keep them on track to meet their goals. Jerry joined Frank Beck and his predecessor company, Capital Financial Group, in 1997. Prior to joining Frank, he spent 11 years in the financial services industry. First, managing his own insurance agency, and then as the Area Director of the city of Austins Deferred Compensation Plan. The transition to BCM allowed him to continue serving his client base by shifting the focus to their post-retirement investment and planning needs. At BCM, we employ an investment philosophy based on Sector Rotation, a strategy that allows us to focus on specific industries while avoiding the sectors of the market that are out of favor. This stands in direct contrast to the cookie-cutter approach of investing in a basket of mutual funds and/or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The portfolios at BCM are custom-tailored to the individual and are aligned with their specific tolerances to risk and volatility. All investment decisions are made in-house, which avoids the typical layering of investment fees. There is no doubt that next to marrying his lovely bride of 23 years, Janet, this was easily the best decision he ever made. Besides spending time with Janet and his five grandchildren, Jerry loves exploring the Austin culinary scene and a good round of golf when he can fit one in.

Ken does not believe in cookie cutter financial plans. Everyone's needs and goals are different; what may make sense for one person may not make sense for another, even if they are at the same age or stage in life. To Ken, financial independence means reaching the point where work becomes optional and retirement becomes affordablebut each person might define that differently. This is one of the things that sets Ken apart from other advisors; his commitment to thinking holistically and creatively so that he can help his clients work towards their unique financial goals.Ken is dedicated to helping clients pursue financial independence through practical, values-driven financial plans. Ken focuses on advising clients how to pursue their financial goals, pay less in taxes, affordably pay for college, invest smarter, and properly protect their hard-earned assets. He thrives in his role as a financial mentor and enjoys guiding individuals and families through all stages of their financial lives.

Nick found his passion for wealth management at a young age, growing up, his household looked like quite the Brady Bunch...joy and peace permeated throughout the home and, as one of six children, he was always amazed at his parent's ability to provide in abundance. His fondest childhood memories came from the times spent around the dinner table laughing and sharing stories of their day. But that once happy and harmonious life was plagued by the unexpected...his stepfather suffered from health issues that would keep him out of work for nearly a year. This issue, coupled with economic difficulties in the family business, forced his mother to increase her hours at work to keep the family afloat. Despite her efforts, the household of eight couldn't survive on one income and as a result, the picturesque family was no more. His parents would make the difficult decision to divorce. Like Nick's family, many Americans find themselves navigating unexpected challenges and hardships without a plan. Nick believes that every family deserves financial peace. Nick believes every family deserves to have financial peace. Nick founded Third Act Wealth Management in 2023 after working with two of the largest firms in the country. He firmly believes that the path to getting what you want in life lies in helping others get what they want. He consistently finished in the top 1% for growth with his prior firm (2018-2022) as a byproduct of serving his clients well.

About Third Act Wealth Management, LLC

Third Act Wealth Management, LLC

Third Act Wealth Management was founded by Nick Lalonde in Dallas, TX, in 2023. While working for more than a decade with business owners and their families, Nick noticed the financial services market was not meeting some of his clients real needs. People have many assets beyond financial success life satisfaction, personal growth, education, business acumen, and so much more. We believe retirement should be the pinnacle of enjoyment, ongoing growth, and success. Our proprietary approach considers our clients many assets to plot their best path forward.

As a financial professional with over 23 years' experience, I have a passion for helping clients make wise financial decisions during challenging life events. A change in career whether by choice or through other circumstances can have a lasting impact on personal finances. Having unbiased counsel helping you work through major decisions often brings clarity and direction to your long-term plan. This guidance is offered with "the heart of a teacher" and a low pressure approach. Investments and Financial Planning can be complicated endeavors. I pride myself in having the ability to explain investing concepts in terms people understand. As an independent Advisor I have no allegiances to any one particular investment product sponsor over another. My primary drive is to help develop and implement portfolios that best meet my clients long-term goals and ensure they understand how it benefits them.

About Disciplined Advisors Group

Disciplined Advisors Group

We're here to help you achieve your financial goals, manage your money and ultimately, better your life. Unlike many other investment firms that use a cookie-cutter financial plan for all their investors, we apply our Purpose-Based Asset Management approach. By creating separate compartments for each investor's multiple purposes, we create a structure that allows for a prudent, less emotional investment decision-making process. We believe that markets are efficient and investment returns are determined by asset allocation and the passage of time, not by manager selection or market timing. We are focused on your security and work tirelessly toward one goal: help you achieve financial peace of mind. As a boutique money management firm, we offer you a service that is personal, private and exclusive. We know you can go many places for financial advice, but the clients of Disciplined Advisors Group benefit from the more than six decades of investment experience in which we are backed. As an independent advisory group, our advice is not influenced by a corporate parent and we are free to choose the right solutions for you. At Disciplined Advisors Group - trust, commitment and caring make up the foundation that provides services to our clients.

Craig Larson started in the financial services business after graduating from St. Olaf College in 1989 with a B.A. degree in Economics. From 1989 to 1996 he worked at Mass Mutual in Minneapolis as an insurance agent, then as investment specialist and investment sales manager for the branch. Craig established Larson Financial Advisors in 1996 as an independent firm to better meet the needs of clients. In 2011 this process was enhanced as Larson Financial Advisors became a Registered Investment Advisory firm and converted its investment operations to fee-only to provide the best and most unbiased advice possible. Craig previously worked on the board of directors of the Minneapolis Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors. Craig acquired his professional designations of Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU®) and Life Underwriter Training Council Fellow (LUTCF) and has served as an LUTCF class instructor. From 2004 through 2009 Craig was the Minneapolis chapter president of S.O.F.A. (Society for Financial Awareness) and has given seminars and workshops at a number of local organizations including Donaldson, Cray, Courage Center, Medica, Digital River and the F.B.I. Craig relocated his family from the Minneapolis, MN area to the Austin, TX area in 2016 and now operates an office in both locations. Craig lives in Georgetown, TX with his wife, Maria Estella Larson, and their three children. Craig enjoys playing guitar, inline skating, hiking and drag racing (at the track, not on the street!).
