Celeste began her career as an Financial Advisor at a local Savings & Loan in the mid 1980s. When the Federal Government took over the S&L and shut down the brokerage arm, she moved to Advest as an assistant with a book of business. in January 1997, she moved with a group to Smith Barney. She was excited to see all that Smith Barney had to offer in the way of professional development and quickly moved to the Branch Administrator role, completing her Series 8 & 3.

With the joint venture of Smith Barney and Morgan Stanley, she moved into the Business Service Manger position and was fortunate to have strong partners to get her up to speed in the world of operations. Having both Financial Advisor and Support Professional experience, she brings a unique perspective to the role of Business Service Officer. She gives credit to the relationships she's fostered with her mentor, Financial Advisors, Support Professionals, managers and peers for her success and professional growth.

Outside the office, Celeste loves Jig-saw puzzles- through can only go so long without one in progress before she starts to go crazy. She is a huge Red Sox fan and ran with the complex in July 2019 during the Run to Homebase event at Fenway Park.
