Meet Your Advisor

Scott Burton

Sr. Financial Advisor

The Black Sheep Financial Story

As the only one in his family who didn’t pursue a career in medicine, Scott knows the value of being unique and forging your own path. Because of that, he has always tried to chart his own course in financial advising, rooted in the belief that financial guidance should be approachable, understandable and built around real-life goals – not clouded with unnecessary complexity or formality.

Professional Guidance For All

Since becoming a financial advisor in 2014, Scott has worked with clients in all phases of life, from professionals just starting their investment journeys to those in retirement – and everyone in between. The best part of his job is becoming a valued confidant to his clients, not taking for granted that they trust him with their financial matters.

He knows he’s successful when his clients start to feel confident about their journey – and that confidence and comfort is what he aims to provide all clients, no matter what their situation looks like.

Scott holds his Series 7 and Series 66 registrations through LPL Financial and is licensed for Life and Health Insurance in multiple states.

Life Outside Black Sheep Financial

As a 7th generation resident of Hot Springs, being part of the community is incredibly important to Scott. When he’s not working with clients, you can find him spending time with his family, at the golf course, on a boat or volunteering.
