“We are thrilled to welcome Darrell to our team,” Jim McGuire, branch manager said in a statement. “Baird is excited to continue to grow our presence in the region and to add a talented professional that shares our deep commitment to the Virginia community.”
Baird’s private wealth management division consists of more than 1,400 financial advisors across the US, with an average of 20 years of industry experience. As of June 30, 2024, the division managed over $310 billion in client assets.
