Alex Collins
(Top Forbes Advisor)

Personal Bio

My wife, Heather and I met at UW and have blessed with a wonderful daughter Sienna. Family is the center of my life – we enjoy hiking, camping and the outdoors together in summer and snuggling on the couch watching movies or escaping to visit the sun during the rainy season.

I love sports and you’ll often find, my family, friends and I cheering on the Sounders, Kraken, Huskies, Hawks & M’s.

Professional Bio

I’m a Financial Planner and co-founder of Quantified Financial Partners, as well a co-host of the podcast Beer & Money. This is what I was born to do and started in the industry immediately upon graduating from UW. In 2016, Ryan and I founded Quantified Financial Partners to help families align their money with their goals-- both financial and personal.

I have earned both my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER ™ CFP® and Chartered Financial Consultant® ChFC®. Additionally, I spend time giving back to the industry and Washington citizens through my work with NAIFA, the national association of insurance and financial advisors. I’m currently the regional vice president and have been asked to be president for NAIFA Washington.

I’ve been honored with multiple Forbes Best-in-state financial security professional, Five Star Wealth Management and Million Dollar Round Table awards.

Purpose

To improve the lives of my family, friends, clients, and community making a lasting impact through improving family’s financial future and coaching better financial knowledge.
