About Teresa Powell
About Teresa Powell

As a Thrivent Financial Advisor, I am here to help you confidently move forward with a financial strategy that reflects your values and priorities. Whatever your goal -- such as protecting your family in an unstable job market, minimizing the effects of inflation on your retirement, growing wealth, or supporting causes and organizations you care about -- I can help you put a plan in motion toward achieving your goals.


In creating a personalized plan, I assess not only your financial picture but what’s important to you – whether it’s your family, faith, or giving back.


I am committed to helping you and our community thrive.

Background & Values
Background & Values

Growing up in Maryland and Pennsylvania, I learned the importance of hard work, competence, and reliability. Family and faith are important to me. My husband (Bill), parents (Wanda & Vince) and my faithful rescue dog (Roxie), along with my Thrivent team, give me the support I need to do my best for my clients. While there isn’t much spare time in this profession, I enjoy DIY projects and working around the house, helping at my church, and walking outdoors.


What matters most to you? Let’s talk about your goals and dreams, then work together to build a plan towards your success.

Investment scams are now the costliest form of fraud in America. Criminals often build trust over weeks or months through social media, dating apps or even “wrong number” texts before pitching a fake investment platform that appears to show real returns. 👉 If someone you’ve met online brings up investing, end the conversation. If you’re unsure about an investment opportunity, reach out and Thrivent can help you assess the situation.
