About Colin Bell
About Colin Bell

I have been a Financial Advisor with Thrivent in Northeast Ohio since 2009. Before working for Thrivent I worked at JP Morgan Chase and earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Finance from John Carroll University. I chose to build my practice at Thrivent because it helps me enable people to reach their financial goals whether they are saving for retirement, protecting their greatest assets, or managing investments. Also, Thrivent gives my clients opportunities to live generous lives in ways that are unique and special in the industry. In my free time I enjoy playing soccer, bike rides, and spending time with my wife and daughter. I also volunteer with Building Hope in the City and participate in many Thrivent Actions Teams throughout Northeast Ohio.
