Tom lavery
My name is Tom Lavery, CRPC, APMA and I’m an associate financial advisor with Paul A. Pouliot & Associates, a private wealth firm of Ameriprise Financial. I’ve been in the industry for over 20 years and I have a community-based approach. I partner with clients who have similar values which helps create relationships, not just transactions. I’m active in my community serving as President of Hooksett Kiwanis, Vice President of NH Jump$tart Coalition as well as being a past board member of the Hooksett Chamber of Commerce and Academy of Finance. I am married to my high school sweetheart, Marissa Lavery and we have a dachshund named Hurley who gets all of our love and attention.
Camp Allen is special to me because the mission is something that can’t be ignored: helping those in our community with developmental and/or physical challenges find a place where they can grow, find friendship and new opportunities in a safe environment. The relationships that are formed between board members, leadership, staff and campers are friendships that last a lifetime and teach me something new every day.
