Brooks Kickham tries to make the most out of every day of his life, whether it is at work, strategically putting together a financial plan
for a client, or at the end of the work day, coming home to greet his wife and play with his baby girl. Brooks works with people with a wide variety of needs, helping them with everything from generational planning for grandparents who want to help out their fa
milies; business owners who want to make sure they have continuity plans; the savers who need to have a plan for taking income during their retirement, and helping his clients obtain all insurance products necessary to protect their standard of living in the event of a work-ending disability or need for long term care. Brooks was literally born into the financial services industry, following his father, an industry leader with Massachusetts Mutual
Life Insurance Company (MassMutual). Always fascinated by investments, Brooks cut his teeth on discussions about beta and dividends, and like his father, has always been driven by the desire to help others. He officially started his career in investments in 2001, after completing his degree in Personal Financial Planning at the
University of Missouri-Columbia. His recent joining of the Corporate Investment Team is an example of Brook’s dedication to industry education and willingness to share his expertise. Brooks achieves balance in his life through his family; his wife Wendy, daughter Kennedy, and two dogs, Snickers and Bailey. An avid reader and sports enthusiast, Brooks stays active by playing tennis, cycling, taking Kennedy out in the stroller, or working out to keep in shape both physically and mentally. Add a dash of cooking and a splash of wine to his persona, and you have the essence of Brooks Kickham.
