About our Guest:

After eight years in the industry, Josh Passler discovered the RIA community and found an innovative way to connect with financial planners—by drawing them as cartoons. As he continued to network, Josh realized that FinArt could evolve into a business, which came to be thefinartist.com.

His dream is to develop content that allows advisors to explain financial concepts in a fun and engaging manner while also creating materials that help the public better understand the financial world.

When he's not creating art, Josh enjoys spending time with his wife, Michelle, particularly through travel.
