Tommy Paterson

Tommy Paterson has spent more than a decade in the financial services industry helping clients build a strong foundation for confident financial decision‑making. Spending much of his childhood in McMinnville, Tommy has deep roots in the local community, including a family legacy of entrepreneurship—his grandfather owned Chuck Colvin Ford, a cornerstone local business for generations.

A standout multi‑sport athlete at McMinnville High School, Tommy was awarded the Triple Letter Scholarship by Corrigan & Associates, the predecessor to the firm he now helps lead—an early recognition of the discipline, leadership, and commitment that continue to define his career. He went on to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Finance from Linfield University, where he played baseball for four years and was later inducted into the Linfield University Athletics Hall of Fame.

Following college, Tommy played professional baseball in the Philadelphia Phillies and Chicago White Sox organizations. He brought that same focus and work ethic into his financial career, previously serving as an advisor at Merrill Lynch and as Vice President, Head of Office at Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management. Tommy is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner. (www.cfp.net)

Outside of work, Tommy enjoys playing golf, being active outdoors, and spending time with his wife and three daughters. He remains actively involved in the local communities we serve.
