Welcome, Grace!
We’re thrilled to welcome Grace Kreifels to our team as a Lead Advisor! With a strong foundation in evidence-based investing, Grace brings invaluable experience from her eight years at Dimensional and prior tenure at Vanguard. As a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), her expertise and dedication to her craft will be a tremendous asset to our national client base. We look forward to seeing her make a lasting impact on our clients’ lives.
Beyond her professional strengths, Grace and her husband, Zach, recently welcomed their first child, a son named Riley—and parenthood has already been an incredible adventure for them. True to the spirit of many of our clients, Grace has a passion for the outdoors and enjoys hiking, backpacking, surfing, biking, skiing, and camping (they even took Riley on his first camping trip at just three months old!). As the daughter of a Delta pilot, Grace’s love for travel started young and has taken her to more than 30 countries, immersing her in diverse cultures and experiences.
Please join us in giving a warm welcome to Grace!
Welcoming our Summer Intern
As the summer season approaches, we are thrilled to welcome a new Hill Investment Group family member. Our new intern, Kellen Williams, is excited to spend the summer with us, and we are equally happy to have him on board.
Kellen joins us from Lindenwood University, where he is currently pursuing a degree in Finance, and he is expressing interest in the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) program. His passion for finance and investments started when he was only 14 years old after purchasing his first share of stock! Combining his eagerness to learn and contribute with his keen interest in Hill Investment Group makes him a perfect fit for our team.
“I had a very warm welcome from the team during my first week,” Kellen shared. “I’m looking forward to immersing myself in different parts of the business, learning new skills, and assisting in any way I can. I’m especially excited to see how client portfolios are managed and optimized.”
Throughout the summer, Kellen will work closely with our team, gaining hands-on experience in various aspects of our firm. From operational projects to assisting in the backstage service area, he can apply his academic knowledge in real-world scenarios.
At Hill Investment Group, we believe in nurturing young talent and providing a supportive environment for growth and development. Our team is committed to mentoring Kellen and ensuring he gains valuable insights and skills to benefit him in his future career while also serving our most crucial asset…our clients.
Please join us in welcoming Kellen to the Hill Investment Group team. We look forward to a productive summer with him.
Stay tuned for updates on Kellen’s journey with us, and, as always, thank you for your continued trust and partnership.
Welcome, Jonesy!
We are pleased to announce the addition of Jonesy Chauvot to our team. We have known Jonesy through her work at two of our favorite partner firms – Dimensional Fund Advisors and Focus Financial Partners. We are honored that she selected Hill Investment Group as the ideal team to join.
You may not see or hear directly from Jonesy in the next few years, but she’ll work backstage on your behalf in both our operations and support areas.
Fun fact: Jonesy was a Division 1 pole vaulter at the University of Texas. We aren’t sure how that will play into her work at Hill, but we hope she helps us reach new heights.
