Mr. Reppas’s interest in finance was ignited by a college finance instructor, who was also a broker. After earning a degree in finance and economics and working for the family business, he decided to fully immerse himself in the financial service industry. He did not have any money or connections, and he diligently worked his way up the corporate ladder. According to Mr. Rappas, his strong passion for his work kept failure at bay and made it consistently exciting. As a career highlight, he is proud to have helmed the Sentinel Wealth Consulting Group, a very successful nine-person team of financial planning experts over the years. They are recognized as one of the most important teams in the industry. All of them have an impressive range and longevity of experience in the world of financial services, including a member who has worked in the business for more than 50 years. In the coming years, Mr. Reppas is hoping for continued success with UBS Financial and helping his daughter who aspires to become an FBI agent.
