Steve Starnes - Senior Financial Advisor

Hello! I'm Steve Starnes, Senior Financial Advisor here at Fiduciary Financial Advisors.

My journey has been fueled by a passion for learning. I hold an MBA from the University of Virginia, Darden School of Business, and Bachelor's degrees in Economics and Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan. These educational milestones reflect my commitment to excellence and continuous growth.

Over my 20-year career, I've made significant contributions to the field of financial planning. My work has been published in the Journal of Financial Planning, and I've had the honor of speaking at national conferences. You might have even come across some of my insights in various publications.

As a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), I take a holistic, evidence based approach to wealth management. I ensure that every aspect of my clients' financial plans - from investments to retirement, taxes, charitable, and estate planning - aligns with what is uniquely important to them. Many of my clients are professionals or business owners who want to plan well to live well, and find it valuable to delegate the management of their often complex financial lives.

Beyond the numbers, I'm deeply involved in my community. Serving on the boards of the Grand Rapids Symphony and the Epsilon Education Endowment, as well as being an active member of the Rotary Club of Grand Rapids, allows me to give back and make a positive impact.

As a Senior Financial Advisor at Fiduciary Financial Advisors my expertise and dedication to client service can truly shine.
