Happy client of Markham

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
May 5, 2026
          Markham has been managing our retirement finances for 8 years. We first met him at a Lockheed Martin retirement planning meeting. Markham guided through the Lockheed Martin retirement process. He was more knowledgeable than our own company human resources dept on how to fill out their complicated forms to insure we administered our two pensions in a way that suited us. From there it has been a trusted relationship to managed our finances, plan for taxes, and take advantage of Quotient Wealth’s excellent investment team. We are enjoying our retirement while Markham manages our money.

We Trust Markham

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
May 4, 2026
          We met Markham many years ago when we attended a Savings and Retirement Seminar that he gave to Coors Brewing Company employees. He was young and we were, well much younger than we are now. He spoke to the room of people, but I felt that he was speaking to me. My wife and I knew that he was speaking from the heart about something that he knew about and that he knew was important to us. He took the fear of complexity from us and placed it squarely on his own shoulders. Through the years, we have stayed with Markham and have continued to feel the genuine care from him and his staff. He knows us, our kids, our grand kids, and our dreams and challenges because he listens. Our wealth management has transferred to Joe Calhoun as Markham's duties have changed, but we continue to receive the same regular attention and active care. And we know that if we need or want to talk to Markham he is there for us. Thank you so much.

Great advisor and a good friend to our family.

          We have been with Markham for over 12 years. He has always impressed us with his attention to our family, our financial needs and concerns. He has spent countless hours answering our questions and guiding us on how to work toward and achieve our financial security. Taking the steps through our retirement planning and execution was so much easier with the guidance provided by Markham. Also spent time to help us guide our children's financial life. We look forward to many more years of working with Markham.

Markum is my "finance guy"

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Apr 30, 2026
          Markum began to work with my late husband to plan retirement years before the actual retirement. I had met Markum more than once at various meetings. When my husband suddenly passed away, all I knew to tell my oldest son, was to search for Markum's name in my husband's emails. My son sent an email to Markum. Markum called me almost immediately. He and another associate met with me and my son within a week to help me find accounts and to advise me as I began to learn how to navigate our investments and how to deal with the finances of my life. I didn't realize until I began to listen to my retired and widowed friends how well my finances were managed with Quotent Wealth Partners. I know if I have any questions or any needs, all I need to do is email, text or call. I quickly get an answer.

          We started working with Markham several years ago, just prior to retirement. He and his team turned what seemed to be a daunting transition into a thorough and detailed plan. This enables us to look forward in confidence, enjoying this next life stage. Markham's expertise and advice have been reassuring and trustworthy. Friendly, professional and always welcoming. Highly recommend!

Peace of Mind

          I had no idea how to retire, or whether I could/should retire, or what to do or think. The Pandemic happened and I found myself needing to figure it out. Markham. broke it all down into understandable steps that made the process easy. I’m approaching 5 years out of the working world and while I still sometimes contemplate decisions, I don’t fret over money. We’ve got a plan and it’s working. I would make the same decisions all over again and do so with peace of mind.

Patient and understanding

Apr 29, 2026
          Markham was so patient with me when we 1st met about 2015, I was two years from retirement and needing help with that process but being untrusting when it came to my finances. He never gave up on me and we took baby steps until I grew to trust him. When the time came for my retirement he was there to help every step of the way and still is after all these years. I totally trust him and have followed him from one company to the next. It is not the company I trust it is Markham I trust and I now consider him a friend as well. Great that he is so much younger than I, so I should always have him to help guide me through to the end. Such an absolute delight to have in my corner.

Peace of Mind

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
May 20, 2025
          One year prior to my retirement, Markham took the time to fully understand my financial situation and my plans for the future. My circumstances involve more than just my 401(k). During several discussions, Markham was able to answer all my questions and quickly analyze scenarios, making me feel at ease with my retirement readiness. I could put to rest any racing thoughts and indecision.

Now three years into retirement, working with Markham continues to be a positive experience. My monthly distribution “paycheck”, based on tax-efficient withdrawals and Markham’s full analysis of my circumstances, has allowed me to enjoy my passions each day, post-career. Markham and Joe are always available to talk and give advice when I’ve had market concerns. The Quotient newsletters also serve to remind me how my money is being invested to reduce exposure.

I’m fortunate that I can now enjoy the fruits of my labor with confidence that Markham will be the first to tell me if and when I should make changes to my financial strategy.

          Markham and the Quotient Wealth team have been our advisors since I retired in July 2018 after taking a buyout severance package. He and his team have provide solid advice in maintaining our wealth for now and in the future. The quarterly account reviews insure that we meet our financial needs and our financial goals. The monthly market commentaries tie in current events with stock market trends. And the people at Quotient Wealth are always available to answer any questions about your investments. It is a pleasure working with Markham and his team of advisors. They provide the personalized service that meet our needs.

Markham Hawkins, true professional

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
May 5, 2025
          Before retiring in Dec’19 in Colorado, I had multiple people refer me to Markham since he seemed to have a large client base with the company I worked for. 
Initially our introduction meetings were in person, but once I retired we moved back to Virginia and all our meetings have been through web-based connections.  The quality of service provided from Markham (and Joe) has not deteriorated from when we met in person. 
Before staring with Markham as my advisor, I used the larger firms my company offered, they were not personalized and I never had any contacts with individuals.  All that changed with Markham as our financial advisor; he asked questions about us, our goals, our vision, and our future financial aspirations. 
Markham designed a plan around our lives, our retirement plans and our financial aspirations.  
Never was there a question unanswered, and at times Markham becomes the educator to help us make the decisions needed

          I highly recommend Markham as an Financial Wealth Adviser." "Markham has given me and family excellent advice on several issues. He is patient, understanding doesn't patronise and listens carefully to what we say.  I am confident that any advice I receive from him will improve my situation for a path forward for my investments and a "Roadmap to Success". 

Markham is a solid communicator, trustworthy, knowledgable and customer-focused Financial Wealth Advisor. He has helped us and my family establish a sound financial plan that is tailored to our specific goals and objectives.

Markham continuously keeps up-to-date on how we are tracking towards our plan and makes consultative suggestions when needed., with his support and expertise, I am confident in mine and my family's financial future.

          I’ve been working with Markham for over a decade now and can tell you he puts his customers needs at a very high level. He listens, asks thought provoking questions and offers guidance to make sure your financial portfolio is on track to meet or exceed your expectations. Joe and the rest of the team are phenomenal as well. I truly feel like I’m working with family members as they are so attentive and considerate with my time and financial goals plus schedule check in meetings with me through out the year. If you want a team that will take care of you this is the one to call. I appreciate all you all do. Thank you very much.

Journey with Markham since 2013

✅ Wealthtender Certified Advisor Review™
Mar 9, 2025
          I met Markham Hawkins in Dallas where I was employed by Texas Instruments. Markham specialized in investment and retirement planning for TI employees and retirees. It was great to have an adviser who was so knowledgeable about all of my income and retirement details. Through happenstance and luck Markham moved to Denver the same year we moved here to be near our daughters and granddaughters.  We have followed Markham to Quotient and now he is continuing to advise us during our retirement. This continuity of advice has been so valuable. I look forward to advice from Markham as our finances evolve in coming years.

          Markham started helping me about 15 or more years before I retired.  What impressed me the most was his focus on learning about me, my family and my retirement goals.  He is a strong listener and professional communicator.  He has proven himself as a man of integrity and kindness.

          Markham was introduced to me by way of my company’s early retirement opportunity. At a time when I had to make several complicated financial and personal decisions, Markham possessed not just the expertise and tools to assist me but also the personality and compassion that made me feel I could trust  his consultation. We have continued to build upon that trust for almost 4 years.
