Riley Nelsen 

Certified Financial Planner™ Practitioner, SageSpring 

Born and raised in Orlando, Florida, Riley Nelsen attended Samford University in Birmingham where he majored in Finance. A college internship at SageSpring confirmed the direction he wanted to go with his finance degree and the Birmingham office provided him an opportunity to pursue a career in Financial Planning.

With his CFP® certification, Riley specializes in creating a personal planning experience for each client. As he listens to the individual needs and goals of each person for their family and their future, he works to curate a comprehensive financial, tax, and estate plan specific to their situation. His primary commitment in all of this is excellent customer service by putting his clients needs first and serving them diligently.

Riley and his wife Gigi, also a Samford graduate, decided to make Birmingham their home after college. In their free time, they enjoy spending time with their friends, their church and trying out all of the great local restaurants. Growing up in Florida, Riley spent a lot of time outdoors and is also an avid outdoorsman. He enjoys everything from hunting and fishing to the many beautiful golf courses Birmingham has to offer.
