About me
Hi there! I'm Autumn McCafferty, a dedicated financial educator with a passion for empowering individuals to take control of their financial futures. I’ve always known I wanted to pursue a career in the financial field, and when I got the opportunity to join Northwestern, I seized it.
Integrity, loyalty, and trust are the cornerstone values that guide my practice. I believe in giving my clients a judgment-free and pressure-free environment where they can comfortably share their wants, needs, and concerns.
I work closely with entrepreneurs, blue-collar, and pink-collar workers. Often, people in these fields don't have access to the financial resources and guidance they need. My focus is on providing tailored solutions that meet your specific needs and goals.
I aim to educate you first, presenting clear and actionable insights. After providing you with the necessary education, I then present my plan based on what we've discussed. It's important to me that you feel empowered to make decisions that you believe are best for you.
Building long-term relationships with my clients is crucial. I continuously check in and follow up as things in your life change or significant events occur. Listening is a big part of my approach. I take everything you say about your wants, needs, and hopes seriously and do everything I can to help you achieve those goals.
Ultimately, I want you to feel like I'm someone you want to work with and feel comfortable with, helping you achieve your personal financial goals. Let’s connect and explore how I can help you achieve financial freedom and security. Your money, your power—let's make it work for you.
Lending a hand in my community.
As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.
Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.
How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
