About Mary Jo Boswell

My passion for helping others with their financial security is what lead me to Thrivent in 2008. My goal is to establish an ongoing financial relationship with you. It is imperative for me to understand where you and your family want to be in 5, 10, 15 years and beyond. I use a holistic planning approach to create a financial roadmap that aligns with your values.  This roadmap will help you to move closer to achieving your goals. I also provide strategic check ins to fine tune your strategy and ensure you are on track to reach your financial goals and dreams.   

Over the years, I have held positions in leadership at Thrivent along with serving on boards for Western Reserve Counseling, the Painesville Chamber of Commerce and Pilgrim Lutheran Brethren Church. I have a BA from Notre Dame College of Ohio and I have obtained the Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP) designation from the American College and the Certified Long Term Care designation. I serve clients primarily in Northeastern Ohio and have office locations in Mentor, Westlake & Stow.

Outside of work, I am an active member at Pilgrim Lutheran Brethren Church, enjoy beach vacations with my husband, Don and spending time with family, friends and our dog, Gracie.
