Brandon Pribyl
Senior Vice President | Private Wealth Management
563-386-9875
Brandon’s mission is to serve his clients with a level of passion, detail and commitment that is unparalleled in the wealth management industry.
A Wealth of Experience
Brandon joined Baird in 2016 and brings nearly 20 years of industry experience to his clients. He focuses on providing the highest standard of care by guiding his clients through a detailed and methodical process to wealth management. He begins every relationship by defining the goals, developing the plan and structuring the service so it is repeatable and dependable. He believes that by delivering this approach to his clients they will have a higher probability of achieving their goals over time. It is this investment approach along with his intensive service model that distinguishes him against other advisors.
His expertise and passion revolves around serving a small group of affluent clients, the majority of which require intensive service commitments, which he enjoys providing. He has developed his niche to serve them in the role of general investment counsel and act as a catalyst to attack important issues while also serving as the conduit between them and their other professional advisors.
Brandon began his financial career at a community bank following his formal education where he served in various positions and advanced quickly. He began in the collections department and was then promptly promoted to commercial loans where he served for the majority of his banking career. His banking experience and success led him to join Merrill Lynch where he served on a wealth management team of four professionals. He began in administration where he learned the business from the ground up and quickly progressed to affluent client service and advisory. His last five years at Merrill Lynch were spent as a financial advisor specializing in affluent clients that required daily attention and intense service models and plans.
Brandon and his wife Jessica have lived in Bettendorf for 40 years where they raised their three boys, Tobey, Bailey and Layton. Brandon enjoys travel, exercise, and collecting cars and motorcycles.
