Chris Albright, whose Astra Wealth Advisors manages $192 million in Clarks Green, Pennsylvania, has left Wells Fargo Financial Advisors Network, or FiNet, and affiliated with LPL Financial’s broker-dealer, RIA and custodial platforms.
He will partner with current LPL-affiliated adviser Kimberly Santarsiero, who will now operate under the Astra brand.
Albright has nearly 30 years of experience providing comprehensive investment planning and wealth management for high-net-worth families, businesses and institutions, LPL Financial said in a press release Tuesday.
