“South Carolina is an emerging market for attracting top advisor talent and we are offering them a tremendous opportunity to join a new kind of asset management firm, founded on the principles of ethics and integrity,” said Mary Kennemur, president of the wealth management group at JHS Capital Advisors.

“There are more than 3,000 advisors in the state, many looking to make a career move. We are excited to welcome Bruce to JHS and know that he will play an integral role in attracting more advisors to this outstanding firm,” she said.

Snell is a board member of the Bank Insurance and Securities Association and a member of the LPL Financial Institutional Services Executive Advisory Committee.
