Jordan M. Burns
Wealth Management Advisor
Educating our clients through a planning oriented process in allowing them to make wise informed decisions for their future.
Personal
During Jordan's time as a college intern in 2012, he knew Greenville, South Carolina was the ideal place to build his career as a financial advisor after graduation. He was hooked on the smart approach Northwestern Mutual took to help clients make sound decisions for their financial future and prepare for the unexpected. He learned firsthand how important planning for the unexpected was when he lost his younger brother in 2016. Jordan's desire is to help others develop comprehensive and strategic financial plans has only grown through the years, along with his family.
Jordan and his wife Chelsea welcomed their first child, Blakely Chandler, in 2019, and their second child, Saylor Jane, in 2022. He enjoys spending time with his family at the pool or beach, playing basketball, and working out at the Junkyard. Jordan's friends, Grace Church Downtown family, being close to his alma mater for fall football weekends, being near the mountains and lakes and close enough to visit his hometown of Florence makes Greenville a perfect place for his family. This career and city has given him the best of both worlds: the privilege to listen to the hopes and dreams of his clients at work and the flexibility to focus on what is important to his growing faith, family, and community.

Serving in the children's ministry as well as the Mosaic ministry, which serve children and adults with disabilities.

At its core, Miricale Hill exists to serve the homeless.

The program is designed for students who desire a post-secondary experience on a college campus. Our program incorporates functional academics, independent living, employment and social/leisure skills in a public university setting with the goal of producing self-sufficient young adults.
United Way of Greenville
United Way of Greenville brings together people and resources to fight poverty and strengthen the entire community by changing individual lives. Rather than focusing on a single agency or issue, United Way invests in a portfolio of programs and initiatives that work hand-in-hand to create solutions to many of the community's most difficult problems—problems that no single organization can solve on its own. As a funder, partner and convener, United Way works with the entire community to build resources, focus investments and foster partnerships that create lasting solutions to major issues.
