Stephen A McDavid

After serving my country for two decades as a decorated Army officer, I found a second career serving individual investors as a financial advisor with Edward Jones. Since 1996, I have worked to understand what's important to my clients and to partner with them throughout their lives to help achieve their financial goals.

I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in industrial technology from East Tennessee State University and a Master of Art in business management from Webster University. I am a graduate of the United States Army Ranger School and the United States Army Airborne School.

A member of the Greater Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce, I carry my commitment to service into my personal life as well. I've served two terms as president of the Fayetteville Rotary Club and am currently president elect to serve a third term beginning July 1. I'm a proud member of the Cape Fear Chapter of Military Officers Association of America, and of the Braxton Bragg Association of the U.S. Army.

Among my accomplishments: U.S. Army Meritorious Service Medal with Silver Oak Leaf Cluster; James E. West Fellow, BSA; Paul Harris Fellow, Rotary Foundation of Rotary International; as well as a number of recognitions from Edward Jones.

Helen, my wife of 43 years, and I are blessed with two sons, Chad and Jonathan, a daughter-in-law, Bianca, and two granddaughters, Karie Ann and Kansas.

Jeannie Dees has served as my senior branch office administrator for 20 years. She is happiest when helping others. A former "army brat," Jeannie has made Fayetteville her home for four decades. Married for 33 years, she lives on 13-plus acres in the Eastover area with husband, Dale, as well as two cats, a dog, and assorted wildlife.
