About Rustin Leonard
About Rustin Leonard

Rustin (or Rusty by some) started as a Thrivent Advisor in September 2003, following in the footsteps of his dad who was a Thrivent Rep for 30 years. He firmly believes that educating, understanding, and partnering with clients is the cornerstone in helping them protect themselves and their loved ones. Being able to tell someone that they are able to retire and live out their dreams is an awesome feeling.

Rustin and his wife of 25 years, Kelly, have 5 children (Izaac, Sydni, Jaxson, Tucker, Shae). As a family they all chase each other to different sporting event and activities, travel and go on family adventures. They enjoy time at the lake on the pontoon, swimming at the pool, the outdoors and playing games. Family is the most important thing and he brings that mindset into every family that he works with.
