Your Team

John E. Bergland, Jr. founded Bergland Wealth Management in 1985. Tiffany, John’s daughter joined the firm in 2002. By 2007, BWM transitioned from a fixed location with 4+ staff to a remote work environment with an impressive team of support professionals across the country. Clients communicate primarily with Tiffany and occasionally with Linda. Tiffany maintains the traditional office space in Ridgeland for face-to-face meetings and meets with clients virtually across the country. This has been helpful with Tiffany’s business continuity plans in the unlikely event that she is rendered incapacitated for any period. Tiffany is honored to continue her father’s legacy for the foreseeable future.
