JOHN NIELSEN
In elementary school John wrote down and kept track of his earnings and expenses. He had accumulated a whole $18.75! Boy, did he feel rich. He could buy any candy bar he wanted! He thought better to hold onto the money in case something better than a candy bar came along. Fast forward to 2010 and John has earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Management and Finance from Brigham Young University. He has had four years of experience as a quality control/financial auditor and likes to make sure the details are correct. He also spent two years working in sales tax as a staff accountant for Sales Tax Experts and helping businesses receive refunds from the state. John studied finance hoping to meet new people and help them with their financial goals. He is excited to be helping people feel like they can buy any “candy bar” in the store as well with their tax returns! He has been with Baxter Financial since 2014 and is looking forward to many more years of helping our wonderful clients.
