About our Guest: 

TJ Pearce, CFP®, RICP®, MA, Senior Vice President for One Wealth Management, joined the Financial planning industry right out of Graduate School in 2014. Starting with a large, national wealth management company in Chicago, TJ got off to a very fast start qualifying for Million Dollar Round Table his first year. TJ has gone on to qualify for MDRT every year since, while also building the Investment side of his business. Through continuing his education and working with more sophisticated clients TJ realized he needed to bring more knowledge and experience to his clients from a Financial planning perspective, which is why he joined the One Wealth Management team in 2019.

In his Chicago-based practice, TJ focuses on working with people who care about financial planning. TJ states: “Whether that be in the legal market working with attorneys at America’s biggest law firms, working with established families trying to balance careers and kids, or highly commissioned sales consultants with extremely variable income, it all comes back to people who want to enrich their lives both financially and otherwise. Through joining One Wealth Management, my clients now have access to decades of market experience.” Rather than specializing in only helping one type of person, TJ embraces diversity in his practice and seeks to help those dedicated to making their financial goals become a reality. TJ is a designated Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), as well as a designated Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP®).
