Josh Kreft 

Client Services Associate, SageSpring | Branch Associate, RJFS

Joshua “Josh” Kreft is originally from Lake Zurich, Illinois a northwest suburb of Chicago. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and a Minor in Political Science from Northern Illinois University. After college, Josh started working for Provident Funding, but never saw his whole life in the Chicago/Chicagoland area and wanted a change.

In March 2012, the pieces fell into place, and Josh packed his car and moved to Nashville, Tennessee, his first-time visiting Music City ever. Since then, Josh has spent time in various industries such as insurance brokerage, mortgage, financial service, and health insurance trying to find his best fit. October 31, 2022 it all changed… Josh joined the Lange Wealth Team as the Client Service Associate and couldn’t be happier. Josh looks forward every day to serving clients and the team however he can.

When he is not in the office, Josh is leading touchdown chants for Bear Down Nashville, the largest gathering of Chicago Bears’ fans in the South, tailgating for Vanderbilt football games, reading, working out, exploring Nashville’s food scene, dog sitting, or attending service at Cross Point.
