Thomas Fautrel, CRPC®, CRPS® of Seventy2 Capital Wealth Management, Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network in Bethesda, MD, has been selected by Forbes as #11 on its list of Next-Gen Best-in-State Wealth Advisors for Maryland. This follows his recognition last year when Fautrel was named to Forbes national list of the Top Next Generation Advisors.

"I'm honored to be recognized by Forbes. This award has special meaning because of the great clients who cut across generations, yet recognize the talent among our growing team of advisors," said Thomas. "Many of us have the advantage of experiencing multiple market cycles, while also being a peer of Gen Xers and Millennials who often have different investment objectives than previous generations - whether it be socially responsible investing, emerging technology trends or sustainability, to name a few. Our commitment to developing innovative investment strategies to build and preserve their legacy is what differentiates us."

According to R.J. Shook, Forbes Contributor, "Our rankings represent the true role models of the industry. They set the standards, and because these advisors are dedicated to always keeping their edge, they help raise the bar."

Thomas has over 15 years of experience in the financial services industry and is Co-founder and Partner of Seventy2 Capital. He has been the force behind Seventy2 Capital's college intern program which provides an opportunity for college students to obtain hands-on experience and exposure to the wealth management industry.
