ANN ARBOR, Mich., Nov. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In the
November 19th issue of
InvestmentNews, Jennifer
Bacarella, Sigma Financial Corporation/Parkland Securities,
LLC's Executive and Director of Firm Development, was named a 2018
InvestmentNews "Woman to Watch."
Each year, InvestmentNews highlights "female financial
advisers and industry executives who exemplify our definition of
true leaders and role models." Out of hundreds of
nominations, Jennifer and 21 other successful women in finance were
chosen for this honor.
"Jenny made the list because she is breaking down barriers in
the broker-dealer ecosystem and opening doors for other women along
the way," said Theresa Gralinski,
Director of Marketing at InvestmentNews. "She has devoted
her career to helping other financial advisers—many of whom are
women—to grow their businesses and help their clients live
financially prepared and fulfilling lives."
"I am so humbled to have been chosen for this year's 'Women to
Watch' recognition," Jennifer says. "In a male-dominated
industry, it's up to us women to mentor and empower other women
interested in this field."
Michelle Harm, National
President-Elect of the Women in Financial Services (WIFS)
organization, recommended Jennifer for this honor. "Jennifer works
tirelessly to advocate for women in the financial services
industry," Michelle says. "She is committed to making an impact in
the industry through the recruitment and retention of women. She is
a great role model as she has successfully navigated the struggle
with work-life balance and is giving of her time as a resource to
others," Michelle continues.
In addition to this year's InvestmentNews "Women to
Watch" honor, Jennifer was also named among Crain's Detroit "Notable Women in Finance" in
their May 7, 2018 issue. She also
shared her wisdom and advice as a moderator and panelist in the
InvestmentNews Women Adviser Summit, held in Chicago and Boston this year. She plans to tour again next
year with the Women Advisor Summit, visiting four cities throughout
the United States. Furthermore,
Jennifer continues to build her company's Women's Forum to help
empower female advisors of Sigma Financial Corporation/Parkland
Securities, LLC to grow their financial practices and hopefully be
mentors to other women advancing in the industry.
