Linwood Fraher, CFF
Financial Planner & Healthcare Specialist
Here at Martin Wealth
After starting my career at a large financial services company, I was thrilled to join Martin Wealth in 2023. Joining a team like we have at Martin Wealth Solutions came easy for me. I’ve been playing soccer and, on a team, as long as I was able to kick a ball and one thing I learned along the way: The better your teammates, the better player you are. Our team is made up of all-star players and that’s instantly something I wanted to be part of.
Career Highlights
After graduating from Virginia Tech in 2020 I knew I wanted a career in financial services and joined a large insurance company. Like most things in life, lessons are learned the hard way. I learned fairly quickly that most firms are transactional and not planning focused fiduciaries. Putting shareholders’ interests ahead of the client.
Joining a planning focused firm like Martin Wealth was a breath of fresh air and I realized quickly this was the perfect fit for me. Being a fee-based fiduciary advisor was what I went to school for.
