Pulse 2.0 interviewed RFG Advisory\u2019s VP of Technology and Operations, Dr. Jordan Hutchison, to learn more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Jordan Hutchison\u2019s Background<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Could you tell me more about your background and how you got into the financial services industry? Dr. Hutchison said:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDuring my senior year of college, I went home for the holidays, and my dad asked what I planned to do after graduation. I had no idea\u2014my focus had always been basketball, not career planning. I began researching graduate programs and discovered the financial planning program at the University of Alabama. The professors\u2019 passion for the profession was contagious, and I left our first meeting completely sold on both the program and the industry.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAfter graduating, I spent seven years as a financial advisor, working alongside phenomenal colleagues and building my own book of business. Eventually, I met Daniel Crosby, who became a close friend. That relationship inspired me to shift toward coaching and training advisors at JOYN and SignatureFD.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThose experiences sparked my interest in financial technology, revealing the power of technology in the advisor-client experience. This led me to work with startups and lead various data and fintech product development strategies and teams before joining Shannon Spotswood at RFG Advisory. What began as a sales meeting turned into a career-defining conversation about innovation and growth. Today, I lead our operations and technology teams, driving RFG\u2019s corporate and advisor technology strategy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Approach To Technology<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is your firm\u2019s approach to technology, and has that changed since you joined? Dr. Hutchison shared:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cRFG Advisory views growth in phases.
