Our financial representatives are the face of our organization. They not only represent the Northwestern Mutual Financial Network, but they also represent the best interests of their clients. We are proud of their accomplishments, share in their enthusiasm and drive, and help motivate them to achieve the highest level of excellence.

 

Gentry L Anderson Sr

Financial Representative

Northwestern Mutual Financial Network and specifically the Texas Financial Group embodies values, principles, and practices that reflect the character that we should all aspire to possess. When leaving the banking industry and evaluating the opportunities and choices I had during my career search, the Network opportunity distinguished itself with the long term support structure to building a successful practice. Northwestern Mutual Financial Network is/was the right choice because it offers the privilege to build financial security and financial freedom through serving others with excellence.

Brad Cernovich, CLU®, ChFC®

Financial Advisor

After graduating from Illinois State University, I was a police officer (public servant) for 1 year. The worked at GMAC as a repo man for 3 years.  Then I decided it was time to find a career that would be a help to people's lives again.

 

Matthew E Chalmers

Financial Representative

I first heard about Northwestern Mutual from my college roommate who was a Northwestern Mutual intern. He told me about the values and culture of the company and that is what prompted me to explore this great opportunity as a career. The greatest reward I have with Northwestern Mutual is being able to assist families in making informed decisions about their financial future. These decisions allow my clients to feel confident that their spouse and children would be taken care of and could pursue their dreams even in the event of a tragedy. I have seen this personally with my own family, which has given me a passion to help families create and implement financial strategies of their own.

David Coleman, CLU®

Financial Representative

Toward the end of my college career I had no idea what I wanted to strive to become. I knew that I had sufficient background in sales and customer relations; this in turn led me to a career as a financial representative. I have always enjoyed and knew that being a part of someone’s life and having your opinion valued was very important; this career allows for such and more.

 

John Cox

Financial Representative

 

After being a client of Northwestern for seven years, I was asked by my agent to come interview with the company.   At first, I did not think that Northwestern Mutual (or any insurance company) would be a place where I would want to make a career.   I did not think of myself as a “salesman” and did not know if I would be good at this.   However, what I did know is that I am a good “salesman” for ideals and services that I am passionate about.   Almost totally out of respect for my agent and friend, I accepted and went to the first interview. After my interview process I realized that Northwestern Mutual had the same values as I do, which is a people first mindset.   It is not a mindset of having to be the biggest insurance company at the expense of the policy holders, but rather being the “policy holders company” as stated in our mission statement.   Then after seeing the integrity of the company and how they consistently take care of their clients, I knew Northwestern was a company in which I could believe and which I could talk to my family and friends about confidently.

 

Lauren Harris-Dorbritz

Financial Representative

My friend joined Northwestern five years ago and loved everything about the company, from the way it treated its employees to the way it cared for its clients. After spending three years in a career where the only thing that mattered was the bottom line, I thought to myself, “ I want to work for a company with integrity. I want to make an impact in people’s lives. I need to find out more about Northwestern Mutual.” Now that I’m with Northwestern, I can rest easy knowing that the work I do is honest and has a huge affect on the futures of my clients and their families.

 

John Hunter

Field Director

After graduating from Sam Houston State, I worked in import/export logistics for one of the largest companies in the world. Financial Services was an industry that I felt unqualified for until Northwestern Mutual Financial Network gave me a call. My name was turned in by an old friend who chose the Network out of college. After meeting with the leaders of the local office, I realized my life and career now had purpose. The personal impact we make in people’s lives and the total control over our personal success are just two reasons I will retire with Northwestern Mutual Financial Network.

 

Jim Jacobi

Financial Representative

During my final semester at Texas Tech, I was rigorously pursuing a career opportunity in any field, although I wasn’t sure what field would fulfill my career aspirations.  Throughout the selection process, I met with the leadership team of the local office and learned more and more about the values and the culture of Northwestern.  Every time I left after an interview, I found myself more eager to return for the next step of starting a unique career with an institution with an impeccable history and reputation.  I have always dreamed of having a career with a purpose in life, and I found the perfect environment for that opportunity at the Northwestern Mutual Financial Network.

Marlena Merkt

Financial Representative

I knew I wanted to find a company that believes in doing things for the RIGHT reasons – a place where the clients matter more than the numbers. Through my own research I discovered the core values Northwestern Mutual embodies and it fit every single thing I was looking for in a company. From my very first meeting I knew this was exactly where I belonged. This is a place that constantly encourages you to become a better human being and I strongly believe that’s the true thing that sets us apart from the competition. The products speak for themselves but the heart of the company and the dedication of service is what truly led me here.

Carl Monrad II, CLU®, ChFC®, CFP®

Wealth Management Advisor

After eight years in a corporate sales environment, I realized that I wanted a career that would be more meaningful and allow me more time with my young family. I chose to pursue Northwestern Mutual Financial Network based on those reasons and on the strong reputation Northwestern Mutual has in the personal, business and estate markets.

James M. Siegel

College Unit Director

As a graduate of Texas A&M University, I majored in English. The plan was to attend law school, but after interviewing with Northwestern Mutual, I could not turn away. I was attracted to an enterpreneurial lifestyle, the opportunity to meet new and exciting people every day, and the chance to have an impact on people's lives.
