Scott Alford, CFP®, ChFC®
Financial Services Professional
As a Financial Services Professional with First Financial Group, I work with individuals and
business owners to help them understand their life insurance needs and consider options
designed to help protect what’s most important to them. I hold the CFP® certification*,
which reflects additional professional education and knowledge. I believe thoughtful
education and ongoing conversations are essential to helping clients stay on track toward
their long-term goals.
I take a personalized approach to insurance education and guidance. By taking time to
understand your priorities, values, and concerns, we can identify insurance strategies
designed to help support your goals through every stage of life. We regularly review your
insurance needs as your life and circumstances evolve.
I work with clients who are just beginning to consider their insurance needs, those
preparing for retirement, and those already enjoying retirement. Whether your focus is
protecting loved ones, preparing for future needs, or helping protect what you’ve built, I
help simplify insurance topics and provide clear information so you can make informed
decisions.
Before becoming a Financial Services Professional, I spent more than 16 years in the
corporate world at several Fortune 500 companies. This experience, along with over twelve
years in financial services, helps me understand workplace transitions and the insurance
considerations that may accompany retirement. I also enjoy serving as a resource to my
clients by explaining insurance concepts in straightforward, understandable terms.
My wife, Karla, and I have been married for 30 years and have four children and three
Bernedoodles. We live in Shady Side, Maryland, and enjoy boating and staying involved in
the community. I support organizations including the Maryland Crime Victims Resource
Center, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Chesapeake Bay Foundation, and
Disabled American Veterans.
Building long-term relationships is the foundation of my practice. I value meeting with
clients in person or virtually and strive to be accessible and responsive as life changes. I
invite you to contact me to discuss your goals and how we can work together.
