Born in Henderson, Texas, Wes Flores attended Texas A&M University where he earned a degree in Kinesiology and was a proud member of the A&M Corps of Cadets and 12th Man Kick-Off Team. Upon graduation, he decided to join the United States Navy. 

Upon his release from active duty to Reserves in 1998, and after being a longtime client of Northwestern himself, Wes joined the firm as a financial advisor. In 2014, after an illustrious 21-year military career, including a 15-month deployment to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, Wes retired with the rank of Commander. 

Since his initial introduction to the Northwestern Mutual Company in 1998, Wes has dedicated more than two decades to serving his clients and their individual financial needs. As an advisor, Wes helps people design and implement comprehensive integrated financial security plans that create peace of mind so clients can live their lives.

Wes currently resides in Grandview, Texas with his lovely wife Shannon and their five kiddos: Ty, Leanne, Katie, Joley, & Sam. Forever an Aggie, Wes is an avid A&M football fan, however, he makes an exception to his usual maroon and sports the purple and gold in support of his son Ty, who is an offensive tackle at Hardin-Simmons University. Wes also enjoys, hunting, golfing, and using any excuse he can to spend time enjoying the great outdoors.

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:

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.

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.
