Financial Planner | Portfolio Manager

I have seen the stress that money can cause on a family. That experience has fueled my passion for helping others build a healthy relationship with their finances. When managed wisely, money becomes more than just a means to an end—it’s a powerful tool that can help us achieve our goals and give generously to others.

Luke Anderson

Operations Associate

My early childhood years were spent moving from state to state as my father pursued his calling in ministry. Frequent moves early on in life brought about their own set of challenges, which in turn gave me an appreciation for financial stability and preparedness. My parents modeled wise financial behaviors and the importance of giving no matter the circumstances.

We are extremely pleased with the service provided by Tim, and now also, Luke of Evergreen Financial Services. Not only do they provide investment services for our particular comfort risk, but they also guided us through preparing a financial plan. That's been extremely valuable. We looked at the whole picture instead of just our bank account! Tim and Luke are both so patient, kind and helpful, besides being really knowledgeable. We've enjoyed working with them and plan to continue. We'd recommend Evergreen to any of our friends!

I have worked with other good financial planners, but I like Evergreen because they "get" me. They work from biblical principles to manage my resources so that I can give more to bless others and my family. They communicate well and timely, and have added education information that's been helpful such as information on Social Security, estate planning and more. I'm grateful to be with Evergreen.
