Katie Headshot

Katie Johnston, MBA, RICP®

Wealth Advisor

Katie partners with clients to help them understand what’s possible—she encourages a lifestyle that’s both fiscally responsible and values-aligned, while simultaneously providing guidance to help achieve longer term goals. In an ever-changing and complex industry, Katie serves as an advocate for her clients. A Magna Cum Laude graduate of Thomas College, Katie earned a B.S./MBA in Finance and began her career in financial planning and investment advisory work as an intern to a tax and investment firm during her graduate program. With an entrepreneurial and curious spirit, she is fascinated by culture and sociology and behavioral finance.

Outside of the office, you can find Katie taking a slower approach to life prioritizing family, wellness, and the outdoors with her partner Chris and their two children. Together they explore the unique towns of the Hudson Valley and the Northeast—favorite spots include the Northeast Kingdom of VT, the Catskill 3500 peaks, and both coastal and central Maine. Favorite activities include hiking, thrift and antique shopping, live music, gardening, cooking with her children, sharing meals with loved ones, and sharing home with their Siberian Husky & Great Pyrenees pups. Katie’s advocacy work is rooted in providing opportunity for children with disabilities, women affected by domestic violence, and gender equity in the workforce.
