LEARN MORE ABOUT Jillian Russell

Guided by her passion for people, Jillian loves meeting new faces, fostering lasting relationships and playing a role in helping clients find financial confidence and security.

“The people that I work around, whether it be clients or colleagues, really make my job so great,” says Jillian, who started at Strategic Wealth Designers in 2018.

Born and raised in New Palestine, Indiana, Jillian spent nearly eight years living in various places around the world, including Germany, Louisiana and Alaska, before returning to her home state.

She is the proud mother of three active kids — Jude, Scarlett and Layla — who keep her busy with a lively schedule of football games, wrestling meets, softball lessons and soccer matches. Adding to the mix is Penny, the family’s Catahoula Leopard Dog.

When she isn’t cheering on her children or clients, Jillian enjoys woodworking. Self-taught and passionate about her craft, she builds tables, bed frames and other furniture pieces that adorn her home. “I find it therapeutic to come up with my own plans and then watch them come together in the end,” she says.
