Hey,
I'm Griffin Saddler.

I started Watershed Wealth to build the kind of financial advisory firm I wished existed—forward thinking, transparent, and built specifically for retirement in Northern Michigan.

I’m a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ with a degree in Finance from Grand Valley State, and more than seven years of hands-on experience across the industry.

In 2023, I made the leap and launched Watershed Wealth right here in my hometown of Alpena, Michigan.

Since then, my mission’s been pretty simple: help people make smart decisions with their money.

When I’m not meeting with clients, I stay involved in the community through several board positions focused on community betterment, economic growth, and quality of life in Northern Michigan.

I’m also a big believer in collaboration and love working with other local leaders, business owners, and creatives who care about where our community is headed.

After hours, you’ll usually find me outdoors, sneaking in nine holes, or spending time with my wife Abby, our son Stanley, and our two golden retrievers, Peach & Goose.

This isn’t just a job for me.

It’s personal.

And my goal—always—is to help people feel less stressed, more confident, and more in control of their retirement.

Client Experience Coordinator

As Watershed Wealth’s Client Experience Coordinator, I'm all about making sure our clients feel connected throughout their entire experience.

My role is centered around scheduling client reviews, organizing events, and overseeing client appreciation initiatives (I ❤️ our clients).

Outside of work, you’ll often find me laughing with family and friends around the dinner table while sharing and preparing recipes passed down through generations.

Nothing brings me more joy than those timeless moments filled with good food, laughter, and the ones we love.
