About Christopher Saunders
Chris began his University career as a physics major but quickly realized that was not for him. Since statistics came easy to Chris, the chair of the physics department suggested finance. Chris' parents lived in Tokyo and Singapore so he was keenly aware that finance and capital markets in particular are globally interconnected. Spending time all over Asia as the underpinnings of the Internet were being built has been of particular value from a perspective standpoint.
From a learning perspective, Chris is a deconstructionist, meaning he breaks a system or concept into its fundamental pieces to better understand the importance of and the relationships with other parts of the machine. This is particularly useful when working with complex dynamic concepts such as risk. This is also beneficial in building systematic processes for portfolio construction and evaluation.
Chris became a Financial Advisor in the 1990s when an advisor he was friends with needed someone to help manage the math and build the necessary processes to transition his client base. Most people would describe Chris as smart but he thinks it's more accurate to suggest that he has an atypical framework for deconstructing and understanding various problem sets. Within the Loeb Group, Chris is fortunate to work with a team of individuals who are extremely good at what they do. Chris likes data and the insights that can be teased from it and his teammates allow him to focus on what Chris is good at. In exchange, Chris is able to focus his abilities on building and maintaining models and systems that provide scale for the business and narratives as market regimes ebb and flow.
Chris resides in Alamo Heights with his wife, their two wonderful children, and their two cats and dog.

About Albert Steves
Albert started in the financial services industry by connecting with his grandfather's financial advisor. Right off the bat, Albert knew that being a financial advisor was exactly what he wanted to do as it combines the two things he enjoys, working with people and the everchanging markets. Albert began his career with Dean Witter in 1987 and eventually became a part of Morgan Stanley when the firms merged in 1997. Albert sees a deep value in what the team has to offer, with each advisor in the group having a specific niche, creating a holistic approach to clients' financial needs. The most important part of being a financial advisor in Albert's eyes is having strong communication skills, a trait he has honed over his many years as an advisor and something he believes the team as a whole excels at.
Outside of work, Albert is a member of many philanthropic organizations in the San Antonio community such as sitting on the board of the Argyle and the St. Mark's Church Investment Committee. Albert enjoys spending time with his wife, children, friends, and pets and can often be found strumming the guitar.

About Virginia Raborn
Ginger started in the business a month before the tech bubble burst in 2000. Her first few years were spent not only learning the business, but trying to understand why risk and investing was so important. Ginger realized becoming a "functional practitioner" allowed for avoiding issues while it also allowed her to look under the hood to find where issues lay in waiting so that she could course correct before the problem arose.
Ginger prefers to tell people she doesn't like forms, she likes conversation. Financial Planning can mean so many things and can be different for each individual or family. Ginger feels it is incredibly satisfying to navigate each client to find not only success but to reduce overall anxiety.
Ginger has been in the business since 2000 and has worn every hat imaginable. However, her favorite and most fulfilling hat is one of holistic financial planning. Being the planner on the team allows Ginger to come into each relationship and be effective because she is genuinely trying to simplify and make relationships the most effective that they can be. Ginger utilizes her other team members for the pieces that she may not enjoy as much or that frankly, feels they do better. Ginger believes it is truly an effort to create the most effective relationship with the client. Ginger thinks that her clients would describe her as direct, but caring, honest, and thorough.
Ginger lives in New Braunfels and plays tennis (on USTA and SAPTA teams). She has been involved in the city to create awareness through various city campaigns. Ginger also volunteers for various charities such as, the New Braunfels Food Bank and the Oakwood Food Pantry.
Ginger is married with two daughters (previous marriage), two grown step kids and 6 grandchildren. Her daughters are still high school and college so she is still an active mom. Ginger has three dogs who love going for walks daily. She and her husband are active in their tennis club and neighborhood activities. They travel often and just try to live life with the "why not" philosophy.

About Travis Mayfield
Travis' service model is centered around taking exceptional care of his clients and working hard on their behalf.
His favorite part of this business is the relationships that develop. He gets to meet new people, they become clients, and over time those relationships often grow into close friendships many of which feel like extended family. Some of his closest client relationships go back to when he started in this business 17 years ago, with Travis feeling it's been a true privilege to walk alongside them through life's milestones.
Being actively involved in his community is deeply important to Travis. Travis and his wife were founding members of the Bridge Fellowship, a church plant in Boerne, TX, launched in 2020. He has served in various ways but currently on the set up/tear down team. He is also involved with Hill Country Daily Bread as a men's mentor and has served in Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) as a children's leader, teaching leader, and a group discussion leader. Beyond faith-based service, Travis has enjoyed coaching a supporting local youth through Boerne Little League and is proud to be a part of the Boerne 100, a group of men committed to supporting local nonprofits and causes.
At home, Travis is most passionate about being present and actively involved in his family's life. He also loves investing his time, talent and resources into people in his community. Travis is drawn to deep, meaningful friendships with those who are open, honest, transparent and willing to grow and live life together. He values relationships that encourage and challenge himself and his family to live with purpose and love well.

1When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code.

For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.

2The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) aware investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because ESG criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.
