CWT Newsletter Q1 2024

Nicki Brandt | Executive Vice President | California Wealth Transitions Team

A Transition for One of Our Own!

After serving clients in our industry since 1983, Nicki has officially announced her retirement! Nicki will stay on with us until her last day, April 30th 2024.

Nicki started her career with Merrill Lynch as a temporary employee. She was quickly hired as a full time sales assistant and shortly thereafter became a fully licensed Account Executive in the San Marino office. Nicki transferred to the Upland office in 1985 where she joined Keith as a Partner. Nicki and Keith worked together as Advisors until 1989 when Nicki took a leave of absence to care for her Brother who passed away.

She continued her break from Merrill while she raised two daughters. She returned to the corporate world in 1999 when Keith and Nicki moved to San Diego with Merrill Lynch. Nicki founded California Wealth Transitions with Keith and Brandi in 2012.

She is looking forward to speeding time traveling, seeing friends and hanging out in Montana. She will be missed!
