Tim Alvarado, RICP®

Director of Financial Planning, Senior Advisor

  • Financial Services Professional Since 2008
  • Small Business & Personal Needs Specialist
  • Retired Income Certified Professional®

Tim Alvarado was born in Columbia, Missouri, and raised in Blue Springs, Missouri. After a successful high school career as student and athlete, Tim received a full athletic scholarship to the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU) for football. He was a four-year starter under Andy Reid, head football coach for the Kansas City Chiefs.

After graduating from MU with a business management degree, Tim immediately opened his own company. A serial entrepreneur, he went on to start several other businesses throughout the years. In the beginning of 2008, Tim began his financial services career with Mass Mutual.

Now as director of financial planning with Summit Pointe Financial, Tim’s vision of providing help, resources, and financial strategies to clients has come to fruition. With a deep understanding and background in business, he focuses on working with business owners in the areas of executive benefits services, tax qualified plans, group benefits, as well as creative and protection strategies for both businesses and families.

Due to his desire to make a difference in the lives of his clients, Tim’s role as an advocate is to speak for those individuals that rarely have a voice in financial decisions. Tim believes we all have at least some responsibility for those who depend on us, whether it’s our spouses, our children, or our employees. “If nothing else, we should make conscious, deliberate decisions about their future, rather than leaving their future to chance and good luck,” Tim says.

Tim devotes his free time to his wife, Christina, and his two children, Angela and Grayson. A strong believer in community, he gives time and resources to several different charities, is active with his alumni and collegiate associations, and participates in local chambers of commerce and business organizations.
