Michael C. Seagren, CFP^®

I began my career in Financial Services more than 20 years ago with a deep commitment to serving my community and delivering proper financial guidance to those in need. Having watched family and friends receive poor advice in my youth, I was inspired to take a different path—one built on integrity, education, and a genuine desire to help others. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of guiding individuals and families through their financial journeys, and I take great pride in the meaningful, lasting relationships I’ve built along the way.

I grew up in Rockford, Illinois, and after earning my bachelor’s degree in Economics from Northern Illinois University, I entered the financial industry with MetLife Securities in 2005. Two years later, I relocated to Naperville, IL, where I joined the Great Lakes Asset Management Group of Wells Fargo Advisors—the practice where I continue to serve my clients today. Early in my career, I earned the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER^® certification through Northwestern University, a credential widely recognized as the gold standard in wealth planning and a reflection of my commitment to providing the highest level of service. What I value most about this profession is the opportunity to keep learning every day—not just about finance, but also from the experiences and achievements of the people I work with.

Outside the office, I enjoy time with family and friends, staying active through sports, and pursuing my lifelong passion for music. For more than 25 years, I’ve been an active musician in the Chicago area, both performing and teaching, and I continue to find joy in sharing music with others in the community.
