With his family having over 55 years of combined experience at Thrivent, you could say Lee was born for this role.

He joined Thrivent immediately following graduating from Vanderbilt University, majoring in Mechanical Engineering. Always learning, he's obtained multiple credentials including CFP®, ChFC®, CKA®, and RICP. While he enjoys the numbers side of financial planning, the real joy is supporting clients’ stewardship and meaning through clarity of their financial plan.

Lee and his wife Meredith live in The Nations neighborhood with their sons Aaron and Max. Meredith is a Principal Consultant at Nashville-based InfoWorks.

When not in the office Lee stays busy getting outdoors and trying beat his brother Luke in a round of golf (still winless for those keeping score). Meredith and Lee enjoy travelling, hiking, skiing, and time with family.

With a ministry and banking background, Thrivent was a natural fit allowing Tim to serve Christians as they seek to live a life of contentment and generosity. Tim is a CFP® professional with seven years of experience at Thrivent. The lasting client friendships Tim has been able to make are evidence that he was called for this purpose.

Tim and his wife, Lisa, have been married for a decade now! Lisa is a Senior Account Manager for OneDigital. They live in the small town of Nolensville, where they are raising their two kids, Ezra and Vera. They enjoy traveling to new places together, but often find themselves back at the beach. Most evenings you will find them at a park playing on the playground or riding their bikes around the neighborhood.

Tim has a passion for sports, from baseball to football to hockey. If he’s not at a Predators game, he’s probably injuring himself playing pick-up basketball or rec-league softball. He also loves traveling to see new sports stadiums. He recently completed his bucket list of traveling to every MLB stadium. Though his favorite team is the 2021 World Series Champion Atlanta Braves, he admits his favorite park is Fenway Park.

Andrew and his wife Bekah live south of Nashville with their 16-month-old daughter Emery, and their energetic lab Simba.

Andrew graduated from Belmont with an accounting degree and decided to pursue financial planning to merge his desire for personal relationships and focus on numbers. In January of 2020, he joined forces with the Narrow Gate Group to cultivate his goal to assist people in managing their money effectively and according to Biblical principles. Driven by his desire to build lasting relationships, Andrew seeks to bring financial clarity to each person’s unique situation. He obtained his CFP® certification to continue to grow his expertise of financial matters and his CKA® designation to further grow in knowledge on how to apply Biblical principles to financial planning.

Rains met his wife Christie at church in Nashville in 2018. They now live east of town with their 2-year-old son, Jonah and are expecting a girl later this year! He toured in the Christian music industry for 10 years with artists such as Sidewalk Prophets, Rhett Walker, and many others. Through his travels, he had the privilege to explore cities all over the US and enjoyed finding the best coffee shop wherever he went. He now enjoys making pumpkin spice lattes with Christie and Jonah with their espresso machine at home.

During his years as a professional musician, he found a lack of resources when it came to financial and retirement planning in the music industry. This inspired him to further grow his expertise to help those around him.

Rains is passionate about building relationships and healthy financial planning. Rains’ father, David, was a successful financial advisor and is now in full time ministry. Growing up with these values, Rains is looking to combine financial expertise with his faith as a foundation. He joined Thrivent in January of 2022 and is working towards his CFP® designation.
