I earned the CRPC designation from the College for Financial Planning, the nation’s premier provider of graduate-level financial education, in 2007.
I’m proud to say I was born and raised in Cedar Rapids. I have a true love for this city and everything it has to offer.

Meet Brian
After receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Northern Iowa in 1993, I joined Collins Wealth Management. I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM professional and earned the CRPC designation from the College for Financial Planning, the nation’s premier provider of graduate-level financial education.
There’s nothing more rewarding than helping clients through the retirement process. For almost three decades, our team has helped hundreds of people prepare for retirement with confidence. There are few things I enjoy more than seeing my clients a few months after they’ve retired, free from stress and with more time to devote to family, hobbies, and travel. We would love to share the joy of that retirement journey with you.
I currently reside in Solon with my wife, Molly, and our five children. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, being outdoors, and competing in triathlons.

A Smart Plan for a Bright Future
What would you like to achieve with your money? Maybe you’re looking to build wealth, ramp up your retirement savings, or keep your family financially protected.
Planning is key. No matter where you are on your financial journey or where you want to go, the financial professionals at Collins Wealth Management are ready to support you with personalized guidance and a relationship-based approach.
Whether you just started your career, have questions about your 401(k), or are nearing retirement, our financial professionals are here to help you work toward your unique financial goals.
Financial Planning Services
Our financial professionals can help you explore your options and answer any questions you may have.
Wealth Management
Create a plan that addresses key aspects of your financial life, so you can save and invest more effectively and be better prepared for new needs. Our team will take time to understand your overall financial picture, then recommend strategies that are well-aligned with your goals, your stage in life, and the needs of your family. If needs change, our team will help you make necessary adjustments to keep your plans on track.
Retirement Planning
Smart retirement planning includes practical, long-term strategies for building up your savings and helping to ensure that you will have dependable income in retirement. We will tailor your retirement plan to your financial situation, goals, and timeline. Additionally, if you have retirement savings sitting in a 401(k) or other retirement account with a previous employer, our team can assist you with reviewing your options to determine what is appropriate for you.
Investment Planning
Your financial advisor will work with you to identify a customized strategy and the appropriate mix of investments to support your investment goals and provide the right balance of potential risk and potential reward.
Insurance Planning
Coverage such as life insurance can offer key financial relief for loved ones in the event of your death and can also offer other financial and planning benefits. Your advisor can discuss your options with you – including term life, whole life, and long-term care insurance – and help you select a plan and coverage amount that fit your budget and your family’s needs.
Mutual Funds
This popular investment strategy allows you to pool your money with other investors in a single, professionally managed fund. This can provide economies of scale to bring new investment opportunities within reach. It can also diversify your portfolio by spreading your money across a range of securities (such as stocks or bonds), which may offer greater stability compared to investing in one specific asset.
Annuities
No one wants to outlive their savings. Creating reliable sources of retirement income is central to retirement planning. Fixed and variable annuities, which are types of insurance product, may help by providing a source of regular income when you’re retired.
Stocks & Bonds
Investing in stocks (or shares) allows you to own a portion of a company, with the value of your stock reflecting the business’s performance. Buying bonds, on the other hand, allows you to own a portion of a loan that has been issued to a company or government entity, which will be repaid with interest. Stocks and bonds come with varying levels of growth and risk potential, and investors often rely on both to diversify their portfolios.
