Carin Wagner and Sebrina Ivey have been named to the Forbes Best in State Top Women Advisors list, a national recognition reflecting sustained professional standards and experience. The distinction reinforces the depth of leadership and institutional strength that define GHP Investment Advisors.
The Forbes ranking, developed with SHOOK Research, recognizes advisors based on experience, assets under management, and qualitative evaluation of professional practices. Advisors cannot purchase placement. Inclusion reflects measurable criteria and sustained industry standards.
For readers evaluating advisory relationships, this matters because it introduces independent credibility in a field where differentiation is often difficult to assess from the outside.
Carin and Sebrina’s recognition aligns with how GHPIA is structured. The firm combines in-house investment research and trading with coordinated financial strategy, providing consistent oversight rather than episodic advice. Clients benefit from a disciplined framework designed to operate steadily in normal markets and decisively when conditions shift.
GHPIA is an independent, employee-owned firm managing approximately $2.8 billion. For families, professionals, and business owners seeking experienced leadership and institutional depth in a long-term advisory relationship, this recognition reinforces the standard guiding the firm.
GHPIA welcomes conversations with anyone who is thinking carefully about their financial future. Schedule a complimentary consultation.

The ranking was developed by SHOOK Research and is based on in-person, virtual, and telephone due diligence meetings to evaluate each advisor qualitatively. The ranking algorithm includes qualitative criteria such as client retention, industry experience, review of compliance records, and firm nominations; and quantitative criteria including assets under management and revenue generated for their firms. All advisors considered have a minimum of seven years of experience. Investment performance is not a criterion because client objectives and risk tolerances vary, and advisors rarely have audited performance reports. Rankings are based on the opinions of SHOOK Research, LLC and are not indicative of future performance or representative of any one client’s experience. GHP Investment Advisors paid no compensation, directly or indirectly, in connection with obtaining or using this third-party rating.
