Entrepreneurship is in my DNA. I grew up in a family where my parents had and still have multiple small businesses. I saw the sweat, tears and sacrifices at a young age. It made me understand and appreciate hard work. Watching my parents navigate the challenges and opportunities of business ownership gave me deep insight into the needs, aspirations and complexities that entrepreneurs face.At Edward Jones, I apply that knowledge to my work, developing meaningful relationships with my clients to truly understand their goals — not just financially, but in every aspect of life. By crafting highly personalized financial strategies, I help them achieve what matters most. My greatest goal is for my clients to experience the highest return on their lives — not just their investments. To provide the highest level of service and frequent, and proactive communication, I work with a select group of clients.With 20 years in the financial services industry, my experiences include working at a community bank for over 10 years. Working in the banking industry, I moved up quickly and learned the ends and outs of running a bank and customer relationships. During that time, I also worked annually during tax season filing personal and corporate tax returns for a tax preparation office. In 2016, I was recruited to Edward Jones and in the past years, I have obtained my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER®, or CFP®, certification and Certified Exit Planning Advisor®, or CEPA®, designation. This diverse experience allows me to advise business owners and high-net-worth families on wealth strategies, generational transfer, philanthropy strategies and exit planning strategies.On a personal note, my husband, Jesse, our son, Jax, and I reside in Milledgeville. My husband serves as a Lieutenant for the Baldwin County Fire Rescue. We spend all the time we can together as a family and enjoying local community events. I am the VP of the Milledgeville Rotary Impact Club, an ambassador with the local Chamber, member of the DAR, VP of the board for Lockerly Arboretum, an active member of the Milledgeville Garden Club and a member of Milledgeville First Methodist Church.I try to bestow on my clients my values. Those values are to treat every person with kindness, be attentive to the needs of others and show people you care about them.Email: crystal.law@edwardjones.comPhone: (478) 295-2556
