Our Story

Purpose has a starting point.

The 1953 Group was founded on a simple conviction: the future of financial planning isn't built around individual advisors working in isolation. It's built around a team of talented professionals — each bringing unique strengths, expertise, and passions — in pursuit of one common mission: helping clients make better decisions, live more confidently, and achieve a greater sense of purpose and financial freedom.

The Name

Why 1953? Every client eventually asks — and it's one of our favorite stories to tell. Ask us at your first meeting.

Our Commitments

What we hold ourselves to.

Collaboration over isolation

Specialists working together deliver planning that is deeper and more comprehensive than any one advisor can alone.

Decades, not transactions

We measure success in the confidence we create, the families we strengthen, and the legacies we help preserve.

Excellence as the standard

Every deliverable, meeting, and follow-up should reinforce why you trusted us.

Begin with a conversation.

No pitch. No pressure. A discovery call is simply where your story meets our process.
