About Me
Bryan Wisda is the President of Almega Wealth Management.. He has over 20 years of experience in financial services, investment management, and financial planning. Bryan has been a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™️ since 2006, is a member of the Financial Planning Association, and is recognized as a NAPFA-Registered Financial Advisor.
He is most known for working with already successful families to create a life beyond wealth. He defines a life beyond wealth as having the freedom to focus on the here and now and by creating an environment for client's children and grandchildren to fail fast and fail forward without entitlement. He believes your family deserve a platform that allows you to succeed and find your life's purpose.
Prior to starting Almega, he worked for Bank of America (1995-2000), Farmers Insurance (2000-2001), UBS Wealth Management (2001-2007), and Summit Wealth Management (2007-2015). In 2012 he purchased and ran Summit Wealth Management until selling in 2015.
In 2015, he started Almega Life Solutions, the precursor to Almega Wealth Management, which he ran concurrently while serving the community as a Deputy Sheriff with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO). He medically retired in 2021 from law enforcement due to an on-duty shooting in 2016 for which the Sheriff awarded him a Purple Heart and elected to return to wealth management full-time in 2021.
Bryan studied Political & Economic Philosophy at the University of Arizona (1996-2000), Financial Planning through Boston University (2005-2006), and coursework in Adult Education through Rio Salado College.
Bryan, and his wife Sarah have been married for 17 years, are parents to two boys (15 and 12), and are members of Pinnacle Peak Country Club. Bryan is also a professional musician and the creator of the ADHD Lullaby™️ series of albums.
