March has been a great month for Abby Crimmins. She was recently promoted to Associate Advisor and, after passing with flying colors, is now Hill’s newest CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™. Days later, the celebrations continued when her longtime boyfriend, Joe Wiss, proposed to her! Their special moment was shared with close family and friends who traveled to St. Louis to celebrate with the newly engaged couple. Now that’s real March Madness!

We wanted to thank everyone who nominated us to become a finalist in the “Wealth Manager/Financial Advisor” category for the St. Louis Magazine A-List Awards! While many awards are “pay to play,” this award is based completely on public support and voting. Thank you!

Hill Investment Group is proud to announce that PJ McDaniel and Nell Schiffer will join Matt Hall and John Reagan as Partners. See the story in the St. Louis Business Journal here.

“It’s a huge honor to be invited into the partnership group at Hill Investment Group,” says Nell. “Since the day I interviewed, it’s been my dream to help shape the Island of Idealism for our clients and team. This next chapter will be a great one.”

Nell’s rare combination of technical ability and interpersonal instincts makes her an indispensable member of the team. As HIG’s first COO, Nell has played a pivotal role in building on the organic magic that used to live in Matt and Rick’s heads. Today, the firm runs on a reliable set of systems, second nature to Nell and now to HIG.

As HIG’s Head of Business Development, PJ has been instrumental in building relationships with successful families who want to Take the Long View. His experience balancing growth with high-touch service puts him in an ideal position to help lead HIG into the future.

“My time at HIG has given me a perspective that few people are fortunate enough to have, and I’m ready to pay it forward,” says PJ. “We’ve always had big visions, and now we have the team in place to make it all happen.”

“Hill Investment Group is special because of our people,” says Matt Hall. “Nell and PJ are truly exceptional and have earned their way to the ownership and leadership table. I sincerely believe these two are among the best in our industry.”
