About Me
Kristin Gillis Long brings energy and dedication to her clients every day. In pursuit of excellence, she earned her CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification, awarded by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. as well as the Chartered Retirement Planning CounselorSM designation from the College for Financial Planning.
Through financial planning, Kristin has a special focus on the after-tax results her clients enjoy. Kristin’s professional satisfaction is measured as she see her clients achieve their financial goals. She chose Morgan Stanley as the future of her practice in 2021 in order to provide her clients with a more robust investment platform and greater services. Her investment philosophy emphasizes leveraging the intellectual capital of the firm to deliver world class investment solutions for her clients. She also empowers clients to align their investments with their values without comprising investment returns.
With her foundation in the business in client service, she believes exceptional service is at the root of every relationship. She gets to know her clients on a personal basis so she can provide them with the best advice for their families
Kristin began her career in the financial services industry in 1996 after attaining a degree in Business and Economics from Lehigh University. At Lehigh, she was also a member of the Women's Lacrosse Division I Team for four years. Through her many years of being in the financial services business and moving around with the Navy, she took on many roles in all aspects of the business that has made her more well rounded.
Kristin enjoys walking to Morgan Stanley’s Annapolis office from her home in Eastport, where she lives with her husband Matt “Spike” Long and their three boys, Nate, Sam, Graeme, and their adorable black Labrador Tubbs. Kristin’s family gives her balance in life – and when she’s not in the office you might find her running, watching her boys sailing, playing lacrosse or soccer, or taking her boys fishing or golfing.
