Kestra Private Wealth Services Welcomes $400 Million Campus Private Wealth to Its Growing Community

Experienced advisors embrace independence to deliver customized financial solutions

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kestra Private Wealth Services (Kestra PWS), a registered investment adviser subsidiary of Kestra Financial, Inc., today announced that Campus Private Wealth has joined its platform. This partnership represents a shared commitment to delivering highly tailored client service.

Based in Arlington, VA, Campus Private Wealth specializes in high-end generational wealth strategies. Founders Bill Milby, CEO and CIO, and Jason Lindner, COO, have tailored their approach to ensure every client’s financial plan aligns with their unique needs and aspirations. The name “Campus Private Wealth” reflects the life cycle of personal growth and achievement that a professional typically embarks upon—starting on campus, building a career, giving back, and in some cases, retiring in cities near their alma maters. This philosophy resonates deeply with the team’s mission to guide clients through all stages of life, from early adulthood to retirement.

Kestra PWS provides advisors with the tools and resources necessary to succeed as independent business owners, including advanced compliance solutions, cutting-edge technology, and back-office support. This comprehensive platform enables advisors like Campus Private Wealth to prioritize client relationships and deliver exceptional service.

“We are thrilled to welcome Campus Private Wealth to Kestra PWS,” said Rob Bartenstein, CEO at Kestra Private Wealth Services. “Bill and Jason’s dedication to customized client care and forward-thinking strategies perfectly aligns with our mission to empower independent advisors to achieve their full potential.”

Milby and Lindner’s decision to join Kestra PWS stems from their desire to elevate their practice by transitioning to an independent model. “We wanted to make this move while at the top of our game, ensuring we could deliver an even more customized experience for our clients,” said Milby. “Kestra PWS offers the perfect blend of independence and support, allowing us to focus on what matters most—our clients.”
