With a passion for empowering both clients and advisors, Tyler focuses on building systems and environments where people—and businesses—can thrive.
A graduate Summa Cum Laude from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tyler holds a degree in Business Administration with a focus in Logistics and Transportation. His professional journey spans more than two decades in supply chain, manufacturing, and operations leadership, having led international teams across Georgia, Ohio, and Texas. In 2018, he returned home to Tennessee and made a purposeful transition into the financial services and commercial real estate industries—driven by a desire to help others succeed.
Tyler’s connection to Tennessee runs deep. He is a proud member of the First Families of Tennessee, tracing his lineage back to a Fourth Great Grandfather who received a Revolutionary War land grant and settled in what is now Blount County, before the state achieved official statehood. Tyler grew up in nearby Maryville, and now lives in Oak Ridge with his wife and two daughters.
Outside of work, Tyler serves on the Board of Governance for Breast Connect, Inc., and is passionate about leadership development, community service, and continuous improvement. He also enjoys fishing, and as a shade-tree mechanic, takes pride in maintaining the family’s vehicles and yard equipment. Much of his free time is happily spent supporting his daughters in their chosen endeavors.
