Nathan Hudgins

Nathan Hudgins is a Senior Vice President with Pinnacle Asset Management and a Wealth Advisor with Raymond James Financial Services. With more than two decades of experience as a financial advisor, Nathan has built his career on one guiding principle: trust. He believes an effective financial strategy is not driven by market data alone, but by a genuine partnership and a deep understanding of what matters most—whether that’s a client’s family, business, or long-term goals. Nathan’s clients know they can count on him to be their first call for any financial question, connecting them with a network of dedicated professionals to address every aspect of their financial world.

He takes pride in providing clear, straightforward financial guidance, serving as a dedicated partner to both individuals and business owners. Nathan earned his Master of Business Administration (MBA) from the University of Arizona, strengthening his ability to deliver strategic insight and long-term planning expertise. His goal is to help clients navigate major financial decisions with confidence—preserving and growing wealth through every personal and professional milestone.

Nathan’s path to finance was anything but conventional. He began his career in engineering and construction, where he developed a deep appreciation for detailed planning and the importance of a solid blueprint—skills that continue to shape his approach to financial advising today. Just as he once built his own home from the ground up, he now applies that same builder’s mindset to crafting durable, well-structured financial strategies designed to adapt to a changing world.

Nathan and his wife, Briana, are proud to call Roanoke home, where they are raising their two teenage daughters. Being an active part of the community is deeply important to him, and he is honored to help his neighbors and local business owners build more stable, confident financial futures.
