Clark joined the firm as a wealth advisor in March.Clark’s focus will be on providing customized and sophisticated planning to Boyer & Corporon Wealth Management clients. He will also serve as a member of the firm’s investment committee.

Prior to joining Boyer & Corporon Wealth Management,Clark garnered more than 12 years of experience in individual income tax compliance, personal financial planning and wealth management.

Clark graduated Cum Laude in 1999 from the University of Central Missouri with a BSBA degree in accounting and an emphasis in personal financial planning. He earned the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification in 2003, followed by the Accredited Asset Management Specialist (AAMS) designation in 2004 at the College for Financial Planning near Denver,Colo., which is the nation’s oldest financial planning education institution.Clark also remains an active member of the national and local chapters of the Financial Planning Association.

As a varsity baseball player for the University of Central Missouri Mules, Clark helped take his team all the way to the 1997 Division II College World Series in Montgomery, Ala. His performance in the classroom and on the field that year also earned him a selection to the 1996-97 Academic All-America District team.

Having experienced the results that come from being a member of a high-performance team, he was looking for that dynamic in the professional setting as well. “The commitment to professional development and support for continuous learning is evident at Boyer & Corporon Wealth Management,” says Clark. “It’s a culture of lifting each other up and pushing team members in a positive way.”

Clark added that the decision to join Boyer & Corporon Wealth Management was a carefully considered one, not just from a personal perspective, but for the clients he would bring with him. “I had to be confident that this was the right move for them, not just me. The environment had to be one where I knew the clients’ best interests would continue to be the top priority.”

Clark continues to enjoy playing on recreational sports teams in his spare time, and he does a lot of volunteer work with his church. He, his wife and two children reside in Kansas City, Mo.
