Matt Hearn, CFP®, ChFC®

Matt Hearn has worked in the financial industry since 2002. Before beginning his career in financial services, he was a math teach and soccer coach. His background in education has since carried over into his relationships with his clients. He believes knowledge is powerful, and is passionate about shining light on the complicated world of money, as he coaches his clients toward those habits that can improve their financial outcomes over time.

Growing up in Greenville, South Carolina, Matt watched his grandfather succeed as an entrepreneur and was inspired to become a business owner himself. After joining Cannon Wealth Management in 2012, Matt was quick to become a partner in the firm and start living out that dream. He specializes in retirement planning and tax planning for small business owners, but enjoys working with all clients at various stages in their financial journeys.

Matt is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner and a Chartered Financial Consultant. He holds his Series 7, 66, and 24 securities licenses, as well as Life/Health/LTC insurance licenses. He is a fiduciary in an advisory capacity. But above all, he still considers himself to be a teacher and coach, educating his clients on their financial potential and coaching them towards their goals.

Matt currently lives in Pilot Mountain, North Carolina, with his wife, Erica, and their seven children. He enjoys trout fishing, golf, hiking, video blogging, and volunteering with the youth at his church. He is also the founder of the nonprofit financial education organization, Method To My Money, Inc. (www.methodtomymoney.com)
