Kendall Matthews- First Command Financial Advisor

As I was getting ready to post about our award from conference this year, I realized I never shared my biggest milestone from last year! Enjoy some pictures from both ☺️

Last year, I had my best year with First Command and had the privilege of walking across the evening stage for the first time in Scottsdale. It was also Trevor’s first time joining me on stage, making the moment even more special.

That achievement wouldn’t have been possible without an incredible team. Kaytlyn stepped into a brand-new role and absolutely knocked it out of the park, while Belinda provided the consistency and welcoming presence our clients have always appreciated. And to our clients, thank you for trusting us with your financial future. It is truly a privilege to serve you.

This year, we were honored to cross the stage again! While we didn’t make the evening stage, I’m incredibly proud of what our team accomplished. Kaytlyn continues to go above and beyond, and I’m so grateful to Belinda for everything she contributed to our team. Trevor, thank you for supporting me through the long hours and always believing in me.

None of this happens alone. I’m incredibly thankful for my team, FC clients, and the people who support me every step of the way. Here’s to another great year!

Honoring the heroes who earned the Purple Heart for their sacrifice, courage, and unwavering commitment to our Nation. 💜

While we were in Denver for our conference, I had the chance to spend the day with one of our favorite former teammates, Katie Martin. We explored Garden of the Gods, got in a great hike, and spent the day catching up on life.

I’m happy to report that Katie and her family are doing well! They’ll be PCSing to Fort Drum this fall, and we’re wishing them all the best on their next adventure. ❤️

It’s more than just the work. It’s the people and the purpose behind it.

At First Command, our culture is built on service, collaboration, and making a lasting impact together.

Proud to be part of a team driven by something bigger.

It’s time to kick off our Annual Advisor Conference in Denver, Colorado! 🇺🇸

What better way to start than with a majestic bald eagle as the Colors are posted and the National Anthem is sung. 😍

Looking forward to a great week of learning, connecting, and serving our clients even better.
