Brent Jackson founded Jackson Wealth Management with a simple belief: people who have worked hard, made smart decisions, and built meaningful success deserve financial guidance that brings clarity—not complexity—to their lives.
Born in Bloomington, Indiana, and raised in Findlay, Ohio, Brent grew up in a household where responsibility, work ethic, and accountability were expected early. His father worked in labor relations for RCA, while his mother stayed home to raise three children. Like many of the families Brent now serves, success was earned—not assumed—and financial decisions mattered.
Those early lessons shaped Brent’s approach to wealth management. From mowing lawns to fund his own spending, to working his way through Bowling Green State University while employed at Society Bank (now KeyBank), Brent learned firsthand how discipline, structure, and intentional decision-making compound over time.
After college, Brent began his advisory career at Prudential Financial, where he developed the technical foundation and planning discipline that later led him to establish his own independent firm in 2007. Following his partner’s retirement in 2016, the firm became Jackson Wealth Management.
Today, Brent works closely with executives, business owners, and families who often don’t think of themselves as “high net worth”—but who recognize the growing complexity of their financial lives. Clients seek Brent out during pivotal moments: preparing for retirement, navigating business transitions, managing tax exposure, coordinating estate decisions, or simply wanting a clearer picture of where everything stands.
At Jackson Wealth Management, the focus extends well beyond investments. Through the firm’s Chart Your Course process, Brent helps clients address five critical areas that quietly shape long-term outcomes: life transitions, tax planning, estate and beneficiary coordination, financial organization and visibility, and behavioral decision-making. The goal is not just performance—but clarity, continuity, and confidence.
Brent is known for serving as a steady financial sounding board—striving to help clients avoid costly emotional decisions, stay disciplined during uncertainty, and make thoughtful choices aligned with what matters most.
Outside the office, Brent is married to his wife, Ann, and they have three adult children. Their son, Britton, is a process engineer living in Arlington, Texas, with his wife, Chayse. They are raising Brent and Ann’s granddaughters, Blayke and Wesley—relationships Brent treasures deeply. Their daughter Morgan lives in Dexter, Michigan, with her husband, Grant, where she works as a Doctor of Physical Therapy. Their youngest daughter, Adrianne, is finishing her senior year at Trine University, where she majors in Marketing while leading campus ministries and competing on the track team.
Time with family—often centered around the water at Rose Lake—is a constant reminder of why thoughtful planning matters. For Brent, wealth is not about accumulation alone; it’s about creating the freedom to be present, prepared, and intentional through every stage of life.
