An advisor who oversaw $125 million in assets at Edward Jones has affiliated with LPL Financial, the firm announced Wednesday.

Granger, Indiana-based Kemp Cunningham has launched his own practice, Emerald River Wealth Management. He’s joined in the move to LPL by staffer Nikki Sharp.

“To continue to be a better financial advisor, I needed to have access to some of the most robust financial planning software, trading platforms and investments available, and I have found that at LPL,” Cunningham said in a statement.

Cunningham started his advisory career at Edward Jones in 2012. Earlier, he had worked in the oil and gas industry, serving as a CFO and regional director.

This is the third Edward Jones team to join LPL Financial this month, following Dallas-based Nick Lalonde, with $200 million in assets, and Lucas Mijares and Jesse Ettlin in Grass Valley, California, with $185 million in assets.
