Our History

Your Wealth Center’s heritage is grounded in Midwest values and work ethic but guided by global insight. President of Wealth Management, J. Standish Fortin, grew up trying to read his father’s Wall Street Journal. To further his education, he enrolled at the University of Cincinnati’s Lindner College of Business and majored in both Finance and Investments with minors in Real Estate and Philosophy. Prior to graduating, he was recruited by several real estate and investment firms.

Upon graduating, he accepted a position with Wall Street wirehouse PaineWebber. While there, he was classically trained and expanded upon his theoretical knowledge base of the investment world. After his Wall Street training and development, he accepted a position at the downtown branch of Quick & Reilly. As a result of the branch’s success implementing modern portfolio management to the firm’s clients, Quick & Reilly was ultimately acquired by Bank of America. Your Wealth Center was founded to serve Main Street with Wall Street knowledge.
