Ed Pitts, a Certified Financial Planner professional, returned to Richardson Financial Services, Inc. in March of 2020 and brings more than 30 years of experience helping individuals, families, and institutional clients navigate important financial decisions and plan for their futures. Throughout his career, Ed has worked with clients from a wide range of professions, including academia, engineering, and high technology.

Ed believes that financial planning is about more than investments and numbers — it is about relationships, trust, and helping people feel confident about their future. Richardson Financial Services’ “client first” philosophy aligns closely with Ed’s own approach to serving clients. He believes clients should be treated the same way he would want his own family members treated: with honesty, care, responsiveness, and a genuine commitment to helping them overcome financial challenges and achieve their goals.

Ed is passionate about developing personalized financial strategies tailored to each client’s unique needs and helping clients navigate both short- and long-term financial decisions. Knowing he is making a positive difference in clients’ lives is what continues to motivate and inspire him.

Ed earned his B.A. from Saint Michael’s College and obtained his Certified Financial Planner designation in 2006. Prior to rejoining Richardson Financial Services, Inc., Ed worked with TIAA, Fidelity Investments, and earlier in his career, Richardson Financial Services, Inc.

Outside of work, Ed enjoys spending time with his wife and family. Much of their free time is spent creating memories together at Lake Winnipesaukee, where they enjoy boating, biking, and fly fishing. Ed also continues to play hockey and enjoys officiating youth hockey games, staying active in the sport and giving back to the local hockey community.
