We are thrilled to share that the CEPA® community grew exponentially in 2023. This growth is a result of the incredible work of our veteran CEPAs and the influence and expertise they bring to the marketplace.

A CEPA since 2017, Jesse has since grown his advisory practice, expanded the network of CEPAs at Edward Jones, and is a known thought leader in the exit planning space.
