Lead Financial Advisor, MA, AIF®
Ben is a graduate of Lipscomb University, with an Interdisciplinary degree in American Studies. After college, he went on to work as a junior and senior high school teacher for three years. In 2014 he joined the OLV Investment Group team and has since earned his Series 7 and Series 66 along with his Health and Life Insurance License in 2015. Having had the opportunity to teach, Ben brings a dedication to research analysis with him to each OLV client meeting in order to provide thorough advice.
Having three children, and also being foster parents, Ben and his wife remain busy investing in the hearts, minds and lives of their little ones. As part of this investment, he and his family are involved at their church, First Presbyterian Church of Flint. Ben is definitely “no chicken” when it comes to hard work. In addition to working at OLV, raising a family and being active in his church, he also runs the centennial family farm, where he raises cattle, meat chickens, laying hens, honey & hay.
Tim St. Cin
Financial Advisor, AIF®
Tim’s contemplative approach to problem solving allows him to sift through his clients’ complex and detailed needs. When Tim comes to a proposed solution, we are certain that it has been well thought through, analyzed, tested, and his intent is to produce the ideal outcome for his clients’ needs.
Tim’s genuine care for his clients is only superseded by his love of God and Family. Tim has been married to his lovely wife Dawn for over 25 years. Together they have two lovely daughters – Mandy and Emmy – both of which are a testament to Tim’s dedication to a relentless pursuit of knowledge, as both are fully engrossed in their collegiate studies.
Tim holds his B.A. from Anderson University with post-graduate studies at the University of Michigan, Flint. Tim is fully licensed in Michigan to help service his clients’ needs. Tim holds the series 7, 63, 65, and 31 Licenses and is also Life, Health, and Variable Contracts Licensed, which allows for Tim to act in both an Advisory & Brokerage capacity to service his client’s broad ranging needs.
When not working diligently for his clients, Tim enjoys playing the keys with the worship team at Flushing Community Church. He is also a board member of the Genesee County Coaches and Officials Association (Director of Softball), and he enjoys officiating many high school varsity sports events. When allowed, Tim also loves to tag along with his family to His wife’s favorite place on earth, Disney World.
