Devin J. Garofalo, Founder and Senior Wealth Advisor for Colonial Wealth Management, has recently been selected to join the LPL Financial Ambassador Council Program. An LPL Financial Ambassador is an exclusive, select group of high-performing advisors chosen to represent the thousands of financial professionals affiliated with LPL Financial. These members serve on the Ambassador Council, acting as a bridge between the firm and its advisors to share feedback, provide strategic insights, and advocate for the advisor community.
The Ambassador Council brings together financial leaders who serve as community advocates for LPL Financial. Members are selected based on their demonstrated expertise, professional accomplishments, and commitment to advancing the financial services industry. The Council is tasked with providing valuable insights, feedback, and critiques on all aspects of LPL Financial’s business and how its strategy should evolve in the future.
“I’m proud to serve on the LPL Financial Ambassador Council because it allows me to bring the real-world needs of our clients directly to LPL Financial leadership,” said Garofalo. “Such collaboration drives better tools and services for advisors and, ultimately, better outcomes for the families we serve.”
“This council gives advisors a meaningful seat at the table. By sharing honest feedback and practical ideas, we can help shape solutions that reduce friction for advisors and create a more seamless experience for clients. What excites me most is the constructive exchange of ideas — hearing diverse viewpoints, testing assumptions, and returning with improvements we can implement immediately to better serve our clients and strengthen our practice.”
Twice per year, Ambassador Council members meet with LPL Financial senior leadership, including CEO Rich Steinmeier and other LPL Financial executives, to hear strategy updates and provide input on how to refine approaches for maximum success. They relay the “pain points” they encounter working with clients and offer practical suggestions for improvement.
Ranked within the top 1% of LPL Financial advisors, Devin J. Garofalo, AIF®, serves as CEO of Colonial River Wealth Management. He guides clients in 45 states, offering expertise in retirement planning, investment strategy, and wealth preservation. His background also includes advocacy work on Capitol Hill to advance investor protections.
