Branch Manager, RJFS
Chairman and CEO, Zuehlke Karcz Financial Group
Richard has been an enthusiastic member of the Financial Services Industry since 1989. In the last 30+ years, he has seen the industry evolve from a group of retirees gathering to watch the Stock Market Ticker on the wall to today’s sophisticated Trading, Portfolio Management and Financial Planning tools. A lot has changed over the years but not Richard’s commitment to his clients and their well being.

He takes great pride in tailoring services, Financial Planning, portfolios and investing styles that are best for his clients, based upon their unique, personal objectives.
