Holiday Reflection: Our Year in Review
Together, Again
This year, we returned to our home office in Philadelphia, and it’s been great to see our colleagues come together again. We’ve also gotten a chance to host many of our partner advisors in our home office and to see many of you at industry conferences and events again.
After two years of being remote, we were excited to resume our summer internship program in person. This summer, we hosted 12 interns from different universities across the country including Villanova University, the University of Miami, Elon University, and Washington University. It was a great summer filled with collaboration, learning, and mentorship.

Helping Advisors and Clients Navigate Market Volatility
