About Patrick Morgan
While serving as a punter for the University of Alabama, one of my key focus areas was hang time. Today, as a Family Wealth Director at Morgan Stanley, the idea isn’t that much different: Create as big an opportunity as possible for my teammates (clients) to win, regardless of the challenges we face.
I am a Certified Financial Planner™ with more than 20 years’ experience in investment management, retirement and income planning, as well as helping clients create multi-generational legacies. My Family Wealth Director designation means I have the ability and resources to manage complicated financial situations and provide highly confident outcomes with clarity and wisdom.
This year I’m also using those skills as President of the 1st & Ten Club of Alabama, a forty-year-old organization that helps student-athletes prepare for and transition to post-athletic careers. My wife Beth Ann and I are the proud parents of two daughters who both love to dance.

About Liucija Smaizyte Wright
At the age of 16, I was ranked the number one tennis player in Lithuania and had already represented my home country in the 2007 Summer Youth Olympics. Later at the University of Montevallo, I received the NCAA Division II Athletic Director’s Academic Achievement Award while helping our tennis team reach the Peach Belt Conference Championship the first time in school history.
After growing up in a family that struggled financially, I developed a passion for helping others achieve financial well-being while enjoying the things they treasure most. Along with earning the CFP designation, I now have an MBA and help clients with retirement and estate planning, employee benefits, and investments.
I currently am president of Alabama Women in Business and serve on the junior board of GirlSpring. I also am multilingual, fluent in English, Russian, and Lithuanian. My husband Steven and I live in Vestavia Hills with our adopted dog Cooper.

About Caroline Yeilding
My forced foray into personal finance started with biannual allowance and a checkbook on my 16th birthday. I quickly learned the importance of balancing needs and wants.
As a Certified Financial Planner and former private banker, I work to help empower clients to enjoy the fullness of their wealth and live generously. Through a collaborative planning process and strategic portfolio management I help guide clients to both articulate and strive to achieve their financial goals.
I have seen the tangible impact of good stewardship through my work as a Trustee for the Episcopal Diocese of Alabama and as co-chair of the Family Giving Circle at the Jones Valley Teaching Farm. I am continually inspired by the transformative power of intentional philanthropy for both the nonprofit and donors.
I understand deeply the challenges of being both a high-performing professional and a high-performing mom. I am challenged daily with how to best parent a 10-year-old with a list of Colossal Questions and a 7-year-old in constant motion. I’ve found the team approach - both at home with my husband, Tom and with Steelcrest Wealth Management at Morgan Stanley critical to sanity and success.
Select awards and accomplishments that make me smile:
• Rhodes College -Phi Beta Kappa, BA with Honors in Economics
• Inspirational Leader Award, Morgan Stanley
• Charles A. Collat Distinguished Leadership Award
• Jones Valley Teaching Farm Board Member
• Bookplates Book club member for over 18 years
• Proud caretaker of a 10-year-old wild yeast sourdough starter

About Bridget Buckley
The discipline of having to save my allowance for things I wanted growing up enabled me to move to New York City after graduating from Auburn with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. It took a couple of months to land a job with Morgan Stanley in midtown Manhattan, so my savings were really important!
I learned a lot in New York City, and the experience and food were wonderful, but I decided to come back home to Birmingham in the Spring of 2020. My current role allows me to be a go-to resource for our team’s clients, especially during times of major life changes. I genuinely enjoy developing the relationships that follow.
When not at work or traveling, I live in Highland Park with my dog Murphy.
*This role cannot solicit or provide investment advice

About Darlene Beck
Being a Client Service Associate has been my only job since college. While the details have changed, I continue to enjoy helping clients seeking to achieve their financial success. Over the years, several have become true friends.
I enjoy music of all kinds and have attended more Harry Connick Jr concerts than I can count! Please let me know if you have a great cake or pie recipe, because I also love to bake.
My home is in Trussville, and I have a Bachelors in Communications Management from UAB.

About Jackson English
I began working for Morgan Stanley in 2021 and joined SteelCrest Wealth Management Group in the Summer of 2022. Before I joined Morgan Stanley, I studied at Troy University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. My tenure so far as a Registered Client Service Associate with Morgan Stanley has been an incredible experience. I have especially appreciated the challenging nature of the Wealth Management business and the vast resources our Firm offers to overcome them. My primary focus for the team is handling day-to-day operations while providing the highest standard of service for our clients.
When away from the office, I enjoy playing golf, reading a good book, or catching a show with friends. Some of my favorite authors include David Darst, Harlan Coben, and Douglas Adams, I highly recommend them.
