JENN BARRY, CFA, CFP®: CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER, AARON WEALTH ADVISORS

As Chief Administrative Officer at Aaron Wealth Advisors, Jenn Barry works directly with the CEO and President to manage daily operations, inputs for strategic planning, and drive talent management and cultural initiatives. “At its core, my expertise lies in connection and collaboration. For 25 years, I served as a trusted resource to institutional money managers, ensuring they had the insights and support needed to excel. Transitioning into advisory work allowed me to shift that focus to helping individuals navigate their personal financial journeys,” says Barry, who earned an economics degree from the University of Michigan in 1994, working hard to forge a career on Wall Street. “Now, as a senior leader, my passion is cultivating a strong, dynamic team and fostering a thriving firm culture—all while driving meaningful outcomes for both our clients and the organization.”

Relationship building is one of her specialties, a skill she learned growing up in the back of her grandparents’ restaurants, working alongside her parents and sister. “That business teaches you many lessons—hard work, customer service, financial responsibility—but it also taught me I didn’t want to work in a restaurant,” she explains. “I think my choice of career was, and is, a great intersection of business and relationships.”

Today, Barry lives in the northern suburbs of Chicago with her husband and three children. She takes great pride in empowering her clients to reach their full potential. “Ultimately, the most rewarding part of my work is helping people achieve their goals and find fulfillment in their lives, whether through financial security, professional growth, or personal happiness,” Barry adds. “Our clients—successful entrepreneurs, business owners, and executives—lead complex, fast-paced lives. To provide seamless financial guidance, we craft a customized single family office for each client, serving as their centralized team and single point of contact for financial, estate, tax, and philanthropic needs. Building trust takes time, especially with multiple family members, but we focus intently on establishing a strong foundation from the very first meeting—ensuring that every decision and interaction is guided by integrity, expertise, and a commitment to their success.”
