A unique aspect of this Minneapolis wealth management firm is that the majority of their financial advisors and support staff are women, marking a stark contrast against the financial advisory industry as a whole. 9 out of 12 team members are women, with one being co-founder Kay Kramer.

Birchwood successfully maintains a commitment to championing a diverse, talented team of Minnesota financial advisors in an industry that is notorious for being less diverse.
