We're thrilled to have Gene, Wes and Taryn as our first partners in one of the fastest growing markets in the country," said Chris Barton, Divisional President at Steward Partners.

"We're thrilled to be a part of the firm's growing Texas presence and look forward to starting the next chapter of our careers."
