Evan Harof, CFP®, graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in economics and a minor in mathematics from King University in Bristol, Tennessee. He continued his education through the University of Georgia's Terry College of Business and earned his CFP® certification. His education and interest in the national economy forged his path to joining his father in the career of financial advising. His own diverse skills, which include IT and marketing, will also be an asset in maintaining optimal customer communication and service.
Evan published an economic analytical study of the Tennessee and Virginia border area that centered on the different labor markets and how they were affected by unemployment before and after the 2007 recession. The study broke down various key elements that resulted in disparities in the strength and time of recovery of some sectors of the regional economy as compared to others.
Evan is a graduate of Clarence schools, and, in addition to economics, he has always had a passion for sports. He played football, basketball, and baseball and went on to play Division II baseball as a pitcher for the King University Tornado, where he was named to the All-Conference Academic Honors team for Conference Carolinas. He is now a loyal fan of the Bills, UB Bulls, Sabres, Yankees, and, unfortunately, the Knicks.
Evan holds the FINRA Series 7 and 66 securities registrations and is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional. He is also licensed to sell life, accident, and health insurance.
