Trevor Gunter is a CFP® professional and the founder and lead advisor at Four Pines Financial. After earning a degree in Business and Economics at Wheaton College, Trevor built his career across large asset management firms and boutique planning practices. Along the way, he noticed a pattern: people were often paying more than they should, holding investments that didn’t match their goals, and feeling unsure about the “why” behind their financial decisions. He started Four Pines to offer a better experience - independent fiduciary advice that’s grounded in expertise and delivered in plain English. Trevor’s approach is steady and practical, with a focus on helping clients understand their plan, make confident decisions over time, and keep their money aligned with what matters most. Outside of the office, Trevor enjoys sports, travel, trying new restaurants, and spending time with family.
