Amber Patton came to Cooke Financial Group to build something.

In the short time since joining, she’s grown a meaningful client base, earned the trust of families navigating financial decisions, and made our team sharper in the process.

We do not just look for advisors who can build a book of business. We look for teammates who make our firm better by being part of it. Amber does both.

Congratulations on your 1-year work anniversary Amber.

Tammy Williams was named to the 2026 AdvisorHub 200 Women Advisors to Watch list.

This marks three consecutive years of recognition. That consistency reflects how she works with clients.

AdvisorHub recognizes advisors who have built growing practices without lowering their level of service. That balance is not easy to maintain.

She has done it by staying focused on thoughtful advice, consistent ex*****on, and long-term relationships.

At Cooke Financial Group we are building a team committed to serving clients for decades. Recognition like this reinforces that we are on the right path.

Earlier this month, at the Franklin US Open Pickleball Championships, Brian Cooke won a gold medal and a silver medal in men’s doubles events.

He also had a front-row seat to watch his family play. His wife, Amy, won matches in the women’s senior pro division, while his daughter, Anna, competed in women’s doubles and mixed doubles events.

This year’s US Open in Naples, Florida had over 3,750 athletes compete across different divisions. Participants ranged in age from 8 to 88, representing all 50 states and 53 countries. Approximately 55,000 fans attended the tournament.

We spent time this week in Louisville, Kentucky at the Sanctuary Wealth Investment Management Symposium (IMS).

The sessions focused on what's changing and what actually matters. A few takeaways we’re bringing back:

• Access is expanding. New investment opportunities are available, but selectivity matters more than ever.
• Technology is raising the bar. Better tools are improving decision-making, but they don’t replace discipline.
• Conversations are shifting. Clients want clarity and context, not more data or predictions.

Congratulations to Adam Malamed and the Sanctuary Wealth team on hosting another insightful event for our Partner Firms.

Congratulations to our President Tammy Williams on being named an Indianapolis Business Journal Forty Under 40 Honoree.

Over the past eight years, Tammy has helped shape how we serve our clients and support our team. Her focus has remained consistent: do the work the right way, make the experience better, and show up when it matters.

This recognition reflects the discipline, care, and leadership she brings to that work every day.

We are proud to have her leading our team.

Last week, John Rapp and John J. Cooke returned to Bloomington for Indiana University Bloomington's Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) Connections Day.

Both are IU alums and serve as wealth advisors on our team. They spent the day with students and emerging professionals, sharing insights and helping them explore what a career in wealth management can look like.

We think about this industry in generations. Showing up for those conversations is part of how we stay connected to the work and the communities behind it. Developing the next generation of advisors is something we take seriously. It's part of how we think about this profession and our responsibility to the broader community we serve.
