Retirement isn’t just a date—it’s the life you’ve earned. Andrew Polzin helps clients turn decades of planning into a retirement that feels intentional, full, and uniquely theirs. Whether it’s traveling the world, spoiling grandchildren, or supporting causes close to the heart, he focuses on helping clients make the most of their money—and their lives. As a fee-only, independent advisor, Andrew prioritizes transparency and trust. He takes a big-picture approach to financial planning, connecting investments, insurance, taxes, and cash flow into a strategy that works together, not in pieces. The goal is simple: clarity, confidence, and control so clients can make bold choices without worry. A University of Wisconsin–Madison graduate with a degree in Personal Finance: Financial Planning and a Certificate in Entrepreneurship, Andrew earned his CFP® designation early in his career. He helps clients navigate the tough decisions—Social Security, taxes, legacy planning—so retirement becomes a chapter of purpose, freedom, and peace of mind. Outside the office, Andrew can be found exploring the great Wisconsin outdoors with family and friends, cheering on the Brewers and Badgers, catching live music, or honing his golf game.

Brian founded Behl Wealth Management to build a firm where clients truly come first. He became frustrated at other financial firms where most conversations were about how to make the firm more money instead of helping their clients make more money. Brian cares about your success and dedicates himself to continual learning. He tracks the ever-changing markets, tax regulations, and planning strategies so you don’t have to feel confused by the financial decisions you face. His clients often comment on how much greater detail he goes into than other advisors they have previously worked with. Brian feels it only makes sense to take advice from someone who is committed to acting in your best interest. He adheres to the fiduciary standard because you deserve unbiased advice. One of Brian's favorite parts of his job is the opportunity to build deep and long-term relationships with his clients and the rewarding trust they place in him. Brian has worked as a trusted financial guide and helped his clients make better financial decisions for over a decade. He is a Certified Financial Planner® and a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor®. He graduated from Carroll College with a Business Management degree with a Finance emphasis and also has a Certificate in Financial Planning from Boston University. When not in the office or meeting with clients, Brian is likely to be golfing or traveling, often with his wife Kayla.
