Clayton Alexander

FOUNDER, REGISTERED INVESTMENT ADVISOR

Clayton Alexander has been working with clients on their ascent to retirement security for more than a decade. His love of being in the mountains and the peace of mind he finds there are akin to the fulfillment he gets from helping clients navigate through the steps to achieving the retirement lifestyle they want.

“Some of the people we meet didn’t know they could be done working until we show them from a savings and planning standpoint that they’re able to retire,” he says. “It takes a huge weight off their shoulders knowing they’ll be able to do all the things they’ve wanted to do.”

Clayton graduated from Dixie State University with a bachelor’s degree in business administration, and gained experience through Northwestern Mutual and Goldman Sachs. He is licensed for life and health insurance in the state of Utah and holds his Series 65 license. Ascending and scaling new heights drove Clayton to form Teton Wealth Group, LLC. in 2019 with his current partners.

As an Investment Adviser Representative, Clayton focuses on building holistic retirement plans. With the launch of Teton Wealth, Clayton developed the four-step Ascent Plan – a system to help clients gain clarity and perspective on creating a financial plan for safe, secure and tax-efficient retirement income and estate transition.

Clayton and his wife, Alex, live in Park City, Utah, with their two daughters, Charly and Andi – with another, Tess, on the way. Away from the office, his family can often be found participating in a variety of outdoor activities, including skiing, soccer and boating.
