ELI EDDY
Financial Advisor
Greetings! I’m Eli Eddy, and I’m thrilled to introduce myself as a Financial Advisor at Parros Financial Group. My passion for personal finance started at an early age when I listened to Dave Ramsey’s in the car during family road trips. Seeing my parents take control of their finances and experiencing the peace it brought to our household inspired me to help others in the same way.
To pursue this passion, I pursued my education at Washtenaw Technical Middle College and Washtenaw Community College for an associate’s degree. After that, I earned my Bachelor’s in Business Management from Eastern Michigan University and joined the team at Parros Financial Group. Here, I had the opportunity to learn the ropes of the industry and work alongside Tim in client meetings.
For me, personal finance is not just about investments. It’s about bringing organization to a disorganized part of people’s lives. As a financial advisor, my aim is to help people gain control of their finances and develop plans that work for their unique situations. And as a Christian, I believe that God has called me to use my passion to help others and give glory to Christ in everything that I do.
Apart from my faith, the best thing that has happened to me was marrying my wife. We enjoy traveling, spending time with family, engaging in church activities, and indulging in sushi.
As a Financial Advisor at Parros Financial Group, I’m excited to work with you and help you take control of your finances. My goal is to bring clarity and organization to your financial situation and help you achieve your financial goals. Whether you’re just starting or have been investing for years, I’m here to help. So let’s work together to bring peace to your financial life and make your dreams a reality. Let me show you the difference a passionate and caring advisor like me can make in your life.
Education:
Bachelor’s in Business Management from Eastern Michigan University
