Capitas Advisory Group of Raymond James

Last week, I had the chance to give back to a community that has given so much to our country. At Raymond James' annual Veterans Financial Advisors Network (VFAN) conference, I joined a panel at our home office discussing two areas I'm passionate about: working with business owners and exploring alternative investments.

Sharing the stage with leaders from our investment banking and alternatives teams—and hearing from our firm's president, Tash—was a reminder of the depth of expertise and commitment within Raymond James.

VFAN is more than a network; it's a mission to empower veterans to thrive in financial services. As a veteran myself, being part of that conversation was meaningful and humbling.

Great job Brianna Perry for helping make this a impactful conference.

To everyone who served and continues to serve in new ways—thank you.
