Drew Swedlund

Drew is a Private Advisor and Senior Vice President for Preston, Swedlund & Turbitt Wealth Partners at Rockefeller Global Family Office.  For over 20 years, Drew has been helping clients to create and implement personalized wealth management strategies.

Drew uses the Team’s proven planning process to define what success, happiness, and fulfillment means for each client. Through ongoing communication, Drew builds customized strategies with each client’s desired outcomes in mind.

Many goals are planned years in advance and Drew loves celebrating with his clients when those goals become reality.  Unfortunately, life isn’t always a straight line. It’s the unexpected pivots and challenges in life where the strength of Drew’s relationships with clients can be seen most vividly. “My highest honor in this profession is when clients stop seeing me as just their investment manager and start seeing me as their trusted friend and advocate. Being one of the first calls they make to celebrate wins, discuss opportunities, or to talk through difficulties is why I do this every day.”
