A Family Owned Business

With now more than 20 years experience as an investment advisor, P.A. Nash set the roots of what is now StrongTower Investments in 2015 when he became an independent affiliate of Wells Fargo’s Financial Network: a two-person office that grew to manage more than $180 million across over 600 accounts. The move saw P.A. relocate his advisory business from downtown Huntington to his hometown of Ona, West Virginia.

In early 2020, Bishop Nash, a career journalist at The Herald-Dispatch in Huntington, came on board to learn the trade under his dad’s watch – completing his education and licensing to become a full-fledged investment advisor as well by November. The year also saw the arrival of Stacey Chapman, who joined in March with more than 30 years management experience, taking over following the retirement of longtime operations manager Pamela Grandstaff.

Starting in 2021, the firm became affiliated with Cambridge Investment Research, a private, independent broker-dealer headquartered in Fairfield, Iowa, replacing Wells Fargo. The change precipitated the creation of StrongTower Investments – and a newly-expanded office – a reflection of our family business’ growth and success thanks to the loyalty of clients.
