Meet Kendrick
Kendrick’s story starts in Suitland, Maryland, where he grew up with a passion for sports and leadership. As the oldest of his 6 siblings, he has always taken pride in leading by example. He accepted an offer to play football at the illustrious Hampton University and earned a B.A. in Communications in 2015.
Soon after graduating, Kendrick began working at USA Today in Tysons Corner, Virginia and ventured away by taking a leap of faith to follow his passion into finance. Today, he serves on a number of academic boards around the Washington D.C area in efforts to serve underrepresented minority students. In addition, with Northwestern Mutual he continues to work in a leadership capacity as a College Unit Director where he helps recruit, build, and develop one of the nation’s top 10 internship programs. He also continues to lead his clients to finding financial security, and specializes in working with consultants, attorneys, physicians, and professional athletes across the country.
Our Mission
Kendrick creates the vision for the team, oversees the development and implementation of custom financial plans and is actively involved with clients. His passion is connecting with people, helping them achieve their financial goals and taking care of families—both his and yours.
Kendrick wanted to utilize his ability to connect with people in a career that would be meaningful and valuable to others. He was impressed with the Northwestern Mutual and mentorship. Kendrick always enjoyed educating himself and others in ways to become more mindful of their finances which led him into a career of giving back and doing just that.

How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.

Lending a hand in my community.
As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Washington Jesuit Academy
Every year, Kendrick assists and supports the direction of events to help raise money for the school. Kendrick serves as board member for the Washington Jesuit Academy. As an alum, Kendrick enjoys giving back and spending time with the youth of the Academy.
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.

Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.
