Manny Velasquez brings a genuine passion for helping families achieve their dreams. His career began in real estate, where he found immense joy in guiding families toward homeownership. A milestone that brings stability and pride. Now, as a financial advisor specializing in retirement planning, Manny is thrilled to bring that same dedication to helping families achieve their financial goals.
A graduate of the University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Manny balanced academics with his love for athletics as a member of the university’s Track and Field and Cross Country teams. Competing in events ranging from the 1,500m to the 10,000m run—and even the grueling steeplechase. He learned the value of perseverance, discipline, and teamwork, qualities that continue to define his approach with clients today.
When Manny isn’t helping families create a roadmap to financial success, you can find him enjoying a round of golf or spending time with his Cavapoo, Koozie. It was also on the track team that Manny met his college sweetheart, Hallie, who is now his wife. The two got married in April 2024 and currently live in Tampa, FL, where they enjoy building a life together.
Manny’s approachable style and unwavering commitment to seeing others succeed make him a trusted partner for clients seeking personalized financial strategies. Whether your goal is saving for retirement, funding your child’s education, or creating a legacy for your family, Manny is ready to guide you every step of the way.
