About Todd Brundage, CFP®, ChFC, GFP Fellow
Hi, I'm Todd Brundage. I am the Founder and President of Pacific Capital Works, and I am also a contributor on the radio show Your Money, jointly presented by The Wharton School of Business and Sirius XM.I have more than 20 years of experience working with global executives on strategy, investments, wealth planning, capital markets, and relationship management, all with the goal of helping maximize wealth.
Before founding Pacific Capital Works, I served as Vice President of Institutional Sales at D.A. Davidson and as Director of Capital Markets at the Robin’s Group. Both were institutional capital markets groups focused on supporting institutional investment managers and C suite executives in public companies.
During my tenure in these roles, I excelled at resolving market challenges that can impact small cap companies, executives who are heavily incentivized with equity in those companies, and investment managers seeking specific investment opportunities. My knowledge of company fundamentals, trading, strategy, and institutional relationships helped drive solutions for these groups and contributed to renewed interest in the stocks, improving valuations and liquidity.
In 2007, I was recognized as one of the top five performing contributors in the United States for directing a $50 million fund within the Marshall Wace TOPS program, one of the larger hedge funds in Europe, where success was measured by annual portfolio return. I began my post collegiate career as a US Army officer and was recognized for distinguished service in the Gulf War.
I earned an MBA from the Leeds School of Business at the University of Colorado Boulder and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Oregon. I am also a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), a Global Financial Planner (GFP USA), and a Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC). In addition, I am a member of NAPFA and the Global Financial Planning Institute.
I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife, daughter, and son.

Wealthtender® is a trusted, independent financial directory and educational resource governed by our strict Editorial Policy, Integrity Standards, and Terms of Use. While we receive compensation from featured professionals (a natural conflict of interest), we always operate with integrity and transparency to earn your trust.

We Want Your Voice to be Heard
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
Report abuse. Thank you for helping us ensure reviews on Wealthtender are helpful to everyone. If you suspect possible violations of our guidelines or believe a review is inappropriate, please email support@wealthtender.com with a link to the provider’s profile, indicating the review in question and the reason you believe it violates our guidelines.
