Emily Tierney Petty brings empathy and expertise to her role as Wealth Manager at Windward. A second-generation advisor, she blends financial knowledge with insight into how emotions influence money decisions. With a background in psychology, Emily saw early on how financial stress impacts even the most successful people. Determined to turn anxiety into confidence, she pursued a master’s in financial planning from Kansas State University and earned her CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® designation. Today, she helps clients protect wealth, manage taxes, and plan confidently for the future. Outside the office, Emily lives in Overland Park with her husband and two daughters. She enjoys music, from classic rock to Broadway hits, and loves catching live performances. At home, she’s often decorating, gardening, sewing, or cooking new recipes. She and her family frequently recharge at Table Rock Lake, where they create the same kind of meaningful memories Emily works to build for her clients.
