Former Edward Jones Advisor Opens Office in Marysville, OH
Kingsview Partners announced today the opening of their newest office in Marysville, Ohio. Cory L. Hixson, CFP® comes to Kingsview with over a decade of industry experience, working to put the financial puzzle pieces together with clients. As a financial advisor, Cory continues his dedication to serving others by fostering genuine relationships, visualizing client goals, and developing strategies to stay on track.
After graduating from North Union, Cory enlisted in the U.S. Marines and served with the 1st Battalion, 8th Marines, Scout Sniper Platoon. He deployed to Iraq from 2004 to 2005 in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom II. His unit participated in Operation Phantom Fury, the second major battle of Fallujah.
Cory began his career in the financial services industry in 2006 as an Account Executive with Paycor in Jacksonville, FL. However, he later stepped away from this role to contribute to Wounded Warrior programs in Washington, D.C. There, he served as the regional program manager for Operation Warfighter, a federal internship program for wounded warriors, and as a senior advisor to the commanding general of the U.S. Army Warrior Transition Command.
Eventually, Cory transitioned back to the financial industry, earning accreditation as a CFP® (Certified Financial PlannerTM) professional. He also holds credentials as a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA®), an Accredited Asset Management SpecialistTM (AAMSTM) from the College for Financial Planning®, an MBA from Strayer University, and a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of North Florida. Cory is a former president of the Union County Chamber of Commerce and past chairman of the United Way of Union County. More recently, Cory was ranked #50 in AdvisorHub’s Top 100 Solo Advisors to Watch in 2024 and serves on the Union County Foundation’s Investment Committee.
Cory leverages his extensive financial experience and military background to work closely with clients, helping them navigate their financial landscapes and set effective goals for long-term success. His work on education, employment, and entrepreneurship programs with the U.S. Army Warrior Transition Command focused on wounded, ill, and injured soldiers and their transition back to civilian life.
“When we work together, I start every conversation by listening to you, to ensure I understand what is most important to you,” says Cory. “I then work through our established process to help you define your goals and partner with you to help keep you on track throughout your life.”
Cory emphasizes the importance of understanding his clients and acts as an accountability partner on their journey to achieving their goals. He collaborates closely with his branch office administrator, Carmie Grooms, FPQP® (Financial Paraplanner Qualified Professional) with whom he has worked for over ten years. Together, they aim to enhance the financial well-being of their clients, striving to deliver the most ideal client experience.
“We are so fortunate to serve this community, and we’re eager to help even more people,” says Cory and Carmie.
Kingsview Partners CEO Sean McGillivray welcomed Cory, saying, “Cory’s commitment will bring fresh perspectives as we help our clients navigate their financial futures. We’re excited to have him with us and look forward to learning and growing together.”
