As Managing Principal of Warren Wealth Associates, Chris works with individuals and business owners who want to collaborate with a team of professionals in order to help achieve their retirement and planning goals. His clients look to him for honest, straightforward advice so that he can best construct a financial plan that helps them live the retirement of their dreams…whatever that means to each individual. 2023 is the 34th year of Chris joining the financial services industry. He began his career with a large financial services company and after years of having a limited selection of services available to help clients achieve their dreams of financial independence, he decided to affiliate with an independent broker/dealer in 2005. This enables him to act in the best interests of his clients. Chris graduated from Wilkes University with a BA in economics. He later earned the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification. Additionally, he is an Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF®) designee. Chris holds FINRA Series 6, 7, and 66 securities registrations (through Commonwealth Financial Network®). Chris spends much of his free time volunteering in the community. He is the past president of the Watchung Hills Regional High School Board of Education. He has formerly served as president of the Lounsberry Meadow senior and handicapped housing facility, president of the Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity, president of the Summit Lions Club, and served as a member of both Long Hill Township Planning and Zoning Boards, as well as an elected official of the Long Hill Township Committee. Chris spends time in both Tampa and Long Hill Township, New Jersey, with his wife, Sue. They have two grown sons, Zach and Garrett, and are now empty nesters, experiencing a new stage of life. Christopher R. Collins is proud to have been recognized as a Summit and President's Club advisor for many years-a distinction based on annual production attained by a small percentage of advisors affiliated with Commonwealth Financial Network. Each year, Commonwealth, the Registered Investment Adviser-broker/dealer that helps us process investment transactions on your behalf, recognizes advisors by inviting them to an exclusive gathering of their peers, leading industry experts, and Commonwealth home office staff. The advisors benefit from an intensive learning and networking experience designed to help them hone their expertise, share best practices, and provide ever-higher levels of service, education, and leadership to their clients. Chris has also been recognized many times as a Five-Star Professional.

Scott has been in the financial services industry for more than 15 years. Growing up, his peers believed that he would make an excellent coach or a teacher due to his strong drive to help others. He enjoys the financial planning profession so much because it allows him to be both. He spent his first years in the business working for a company that limited the selection of products and services available to help clients achieve their financial planning goals. Growing tired of this framework, Scott chose to affiliate himself with an independent broker/dealer, enabling him to act in the best interests of his clients. Scott graduated from The College of New Jersey with a BS in marketing. He later earned the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification. Additionally, he is an Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF®) designee. Scott holds FINRA Series 6, 7, 63, and 65 securities registrations (through Commonwealth Financial Network®). Scott and his wife Jen have a four year old daughter Eleanor and currently reside in Bedminster, NJ. Eleanor runs the show so they are currently spending a lot of time at playgrounds, play places, and pools and couldn't be happier!
