About John Doumite
Executive Director
Financial Planning Specialist
Senior Portfolio Management Director
Alternative Investments Director
As a Financial Advisor since 2001, I focus on the Financial Planning process; helping clients, through thorough discovery, see which investment plan makes sense for them. During good markets, most investors think, “I want more risk”. After poor markets, investors claim “risk aversion”. Knowledge learned through the planning process helps our clients truly understand the risk/reward balance of market investing.
After graduating McNeese State University in 1988 with a B.S. in Finance; ExxonMobil gave me an opportunity to work with some of the brightest people in the country. Exxon really taught me how to think. Collecting and analyzing data; reporting results with recommendations to Senior Exxon Management was part of my everyday work-life at ExxonMobil.
After six years, I left ExxonMobil to take over a small business. I was able to find an operating business that had been around for over 30 years. We were able to construct owner financing which gave the owner retirement income and helped me begin a business. My partner and I transformed the company from a wholesale/commercial business to one that included retail convenience stores. Meticulous, thoughtful business plans were developed and communicated securing financing. Successful, profitable businesses were built and ultimately sold in 2001.
I began my investing career with Legg Mason. Part of the interview process included a personality test. This test noted I could be too detailed in being a Financial Advisor. I’ve always laughed at that. I believe my attention to detail is one of my biggest strengths. It’s benefitted my entire career. I use those same skills to help clients develop a comprehensive approach in managing their wealth. We continually monitor to help ensure clients stay on path to achieve favorable results.
