About Jennifer Cornell
As a Portfolio Management Associate, my role is to deliver the highest level of service possible. I understand that when our clients reach out to us, they deserve to have their questions addressed quickly and clearly. It’s a responsibility I take quite seriously, but my friendly personality makes connecting with our clients a real joy.
In addition to assisting with our clients’ day-to-day needs, I’m driven to deepen my understanding of investment management and retirement planning strategies. I hold my Series 7, 66 and 63 licenses, and I’m registered to serve investors in various states around the country.
I started my career as a Client Service Associate with UBS Financial Services more than 18 years ago. In 2015, I joined Morgan Stanley and landed in the Chapel Hill office in 2021.
I grew up in Alexandria, VA and moved to Louisville, KY to raise my two daughters, Sarah (a music teacher) and Chelsea (a physician). I now call Raleigh my home and relocated here to be closer to family. Outside of the office I enjoy spending time with friends and family, taking care of my kitties, hiking, gaming, and travelling.
