Advisor Serving Clients Across the Great Lakes Bay Region from Midland, Michigan
Kingsview Partners is proud to welcome Partner and Wealth Manager Doug Cellini, CFP®, who operates his independent practice from Midland, Michigan, serving families and professionals across the Great Lakes Bay Region.
Doug’s path to wealth management began in the classroom. After graduating from Central Michigan University in 2012, he moved to Midland and started his career as a local high school science teacher and coach. That educator’s mindset continues to shape his advisory style today — simplifying complex concepts, meeting clients where they are, and guiding them with the patience of a teacher and the heart of a coach.
His transition into financial services came after experiencing poor advice himself, an event that inspired his commitment to ensuring others never feel left in the dark. Doug is known for his ability to connect deeply with clients, listen carefully, and craft strategies that feel both accessible and empowering.
Rooted in his Christian faith, Doug sees his mission as more than numbers and portfolios. He works to help families, professionals, and business owners make confident, values-aligned decisions about their money, their futures, and their legacies.
“I see my role as both an advisor and a teacher — helping clients understand their options, make informed decisions, and move forward with clarity and confidence,” Doug shares.
Outside the office, Doug and his wife, Tracy, are busy raising their five children: Karson, Bonnie, Julie, Audrey, and Tom. He also serves as an assistant varsity football coach, plays tennis, and enjoys summer days on the lake pulling his kids on tubes. A lifelong Detroit sports fan, Doug especially loves cheering for the Lions.
“Doug brings an educator’s heart and a servant-minded approach to wealth management,” says Kingsview Chairman & CEO, Josh Lewis. “That combination of technical skill, personal connection, and values-based guidance makes him a strong fit for Kingsview.”
Doug Cellini serves clients from Kingsview’s Midland, Michigan, office and can be reached by calling (989) 214-4444 or through the Kingsview website.
