I followed in my parents' footsteps and started out as a public school classroom teacher, later becoming a principal. At age 37 I made the switch to financial planning, growing a successful practice which I sold in 2016 to run for Congress. That campaign, though unsuccessful, renewed my commitment to helping others put their values to work in their own lives. Andy Millard Advisory leverages the ever-evolving landscape of socially-responsible investment options, giving clients the opportunity to express their ideals through their portfolio.
