With more than 30 years specializing in wealth management for high-net-worth individuals, family offices and charitable foundations, Gustafson has grown her practice into a five-person team that serves a diverse client base across Arizona and the United States. In evaluating Ameriprise, she was pleased to learn that the company shares her passion for exceptional client service and empowering investors to give back to the causes they care most about.

“We take a holistic, custom-tailored approach to wealth management. Our strategic partnership with Ameriprise provides us with the best technology and leadership to thrive – offering clients with the insight and perspective to create financial peace of mind,” said Gustafson. “We customize every client’s portfolio for their unique needs – we don’t try to fit clients into the typical five-risk category model. In our search for a new firm, it was clear that Ameriprise’s values aligned with ours and they shared our goal of managing money for wonderful clients – many of whom are philanthropically oriented.”

“We’re delighted to have Christine and her team join Ameriprise,” said Ryan Lurie, who supports Gustafson as her Ameriprise Branch Manager. “We look forward to partnering with her to build her practice according to her values and vision, which is to ultimately help more people through comprehensive financial planning.”

Gustafson’s team also includes private wealth advisor and managing director Norman Lemus, CPWA®, CEPA, CRPC®. Lemus has more than a decade of experience serving clients and is a portfolio manager on the team’s Tobacco-Free Portfolio, which was specifically designed for The American Heart Association. He moved into the industry after serving in the United States Marine Corps Reserve as a sergeant. The advisors are supported by senior registered practice associate Amanda Morrell and senior registered client service associate Lisa Campbell.

Ameriprise has continued to attract experienced, productive financial advisors, with approximately 1,600 joining the firm in the last 5 years.1 Nine out of ten advisors who joined Ameriprise say the firm’s technology, financial planning capabilities and ability to acquire clients is better than their previous firm.2 To find out why experienced financial advisors are joining Ameriprise, visit ameriprise.com/why.
