My Story and Services
Tommy Hatcher is a Wealth Advisor and a Senior Vice President at Morgan Stanley. He also is a member of the Portfolio Manager Program (PM), a select group of advisors who have passed a screening process to manage client assets on a discretionary basis. Importantly, PM advisors are subject to an ongoing review on both qualitative and quantitative metrics.
Tommy began his financial services career in 2000 at Smith Barney. Prior to his career in financial services, Tommy practiced law for four years, first as a prosecutor, and then as a defense litigator. His time as an attorney taught him the value of forming relationships with his clients, assessing their objectives and managing risk—skills that he strives to employ daily as a Wealth Advisor.
The client relationship is what Tommy values most about his work. In fact, it was Morgan Stanley’s reputation of serving clients with integrity that led to his decision to join the firm. Furthermore, after having experienced both the dot-com bubble of 2000 and the real estate/financial crisis of 2008–2009, the opportunity to serve his clients from the strong platform afforded them at Morgan Stanley was simply too compelling to ignore.
Tommy is originally from Kentucky. He graduated from Washington and Lee University with a B.A. in American History, serving as the President of the Student Body and Honor Council his senior year. He received his Juris Doctorate from the University of Kentucky College of Law. An avid outdoorsman, Tommy is a passionate hunter and fly fisherman. He lives in Atlanta with his wife and two daughters.
