Chad Golseth is the president of Chadwick Financial, an independent firm specializing in wealth management and income solutions. With over 28 years of experience in the financial services industry, Chad combines his expertise with a passion for education to help individuals and families achieve their financial goals.
Chad’s love for teaching began unexpectedly during his service in the U.S. Marine Corps, where he taught young Marines the fundamentals of Air Traffic Control. Later, while attending Mississippi State University, he further honed his teaching skills as an assistant to the Dean of Business, occasionally stepping into the classroom.
After graduating from MSU, Chad launched his financial career as a Financial Advisor with Merrill Lynch in Lafayette, LA. Completing the rigorous FA training program in near-record time, Chad was soon tasked with teaching new advisors as they prepared for their Series 7 securities exams.
Over the past 25 years, Chad has expanded his teaching to include adult education courses on financial markets and retirement planning. His passion for empowering others through education naturally led him to partner with the American Financial Education Alliance (AFEA), where he eagerly shares outstanding workshops designed to help individuals navigate their financial futures.
Chad and his wife, Maria, live in Colleyville, Texas, with their five children, a dog, two cats, and two horses that keep their family active year-round. Committed to giving back, Chad is involved in several ministries and helps raise funds to support disabled youth and veterans. In his free time, he enjoys deer hunting, skiing, and playing golf.
