NAIFA-Jacksonville's Deanna Brown, CFP, CDFA of Ullmann Financial is Selected for NAIFA-National's "Four Under Forty Award" 
 
Deanna Brown Advisor Today magazine has recognized four financial advisors with the "Four Under Forty Award," given annually to four outstanding advisors who achieve excellence in their profession by or before the age of 40. The advisors will be profiled in the September/October 2014 issue of Advisor Today, which will be distributed to attendees of NAIFA's 2014 Career Conference and Annual Meeting in San Diego in September.

Advisor Today, published bimonthly by the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors, solicits nominations of NAIFA members with successful careers and strong commitments to family and community.

"We are proud to recognize these rising stars in our industry," says Ayo Mseka, Advisor Today's editor-in-chief. "The 2014 recipients of this award are hard-working and dedicated NAIFA members, with an unwavering commitment to professional excellence."
The 2014 Four Under Forty Award recipients are:

At age 15, life took a tragic turn for Deanna Brown and her family. Affluent and living in the Northeast, Brown's father suffered a serious accident that left him unable to work for a year, and his wife in unstable health. With no disability income insurance, the family business closed. While living on welfare and food stamps, the family of five relocated to Jacksonville, Fla., where they eventually rebuilt their lives. Such life lessons instilled in Brown a passion to help others prepare for life's unexpected occurrences with sound financial planning. At age 37, Brown owns her own business with $269 million in assets under management. Her company, Ullmann Financial Group, was named the "Premier Advisor" in Northeast Florida by Jacksonville Magazine's 904 for the second year in a row.

Profiles of all Four Under 40 winners appear in September/October 2014 issue of Advisor Today.
