Edward Jones, Russ Gunter

About

Throughout my life, helping others has been an integral part of who I am. I chose a career as a Financial Advisor because I believe I can make a difference in the lives of families and individuals in my community. At Edward Jones, we strive to make sure clients feel heard, and that we understand their unique story. We also work to help clients understand the investment world in terms they can relate to.

I received by bachelor's from University of Louisiana in Monroe in 1998 in Exercise Science, and I obtained my master's and doctorate from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences in 2001 for physical therapy. As a physical therapy business owner for half of my working career, I can relate to the challenges and rewards of being a business owner. After 22 years of being a physical therapist, 30 years of personal investing, and years of stock market self-study, I joined Edward Jones to help others achieve their personal, business and financial goals. Being goal oriented, I believe to achieve success faster that a well thought out plan is essential. 

I enjoy spending time with my family, serving locally as a Eucharistic Minister in my church and participating in mission work in Peru. My wife and I have 5 beautiful children and enjoy watching them learn and grow. Previously, I served in remote areas in Peru with full time missions for 2 1/2 years helping those who have less resources and access to basic care. My wife and I met during this time, and she joined me in full time missions after we were married. 

I can work with you at Edward Jones to help achieve what is most important to you. Connect with me on LinkedIn or my Facebook business page to learn more of how we can help serve you at Edward Jones.
