Over the past year, I've had the privilege of learning and training with Kingdom Advisors - an organization that partners with financial advisors to explore the intersection of faith and finance. This month, I successfully completed all of my training and tests to obtain my Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®) designation.

This certification is particularly special to me. In a year of trial and loss, it has encouraged me to stay disciplined in my faith and focus on God's goodness, faithfulness, and never-failing nature.

I'm excited to continue adding value to our clients with this specialized focus and training! https://kingdomadvisors.com/cka/brettburchett

This past year I’ve been preparing diligently for my CFP® exam to take the next step in my financial planning career. As of today, I was notified that I have passed the exam and can now hold myself as a CFP® professional. This is the peak credential of the financial planning industry, and I am beyond excited to have attained all of the qualifications. God is so good and faithful, and has blessed me with a wonderful wife, friends, and coworkers to support me along the way. Excited to also continue doing great things for my amazing clients with this extra level of care and knowledge.
