Sieracki, also a registered representative, began his career at Harford Financial Group as an intern while studying financial economics as a student at UMBC and joined the firm full time after graduation.

Both Angelilli and Sieracki are on the Certified Financial Planner™ track to become advisors. The CFP designation ensures that clients receive a holistic approach to the financial planning process to assist with the five pillars of financial planning: managing retirement income, asset management, asset protection, tax management, and estate and legacy planning.

Holding the Series 7 license indicates that the recipient has the required knowledge regarding the industry including types of securities, regulations that must be followed and how to recommend securities. Upon receiving the Series 7 license, the recipient is required to complete continuing education to stay up to date with trends and regulations. Recommending and choosing securities is under Harford Financial Group’s asset management pillar of holistic financial planning, the process that the firm’s advisors utilize.

There are several steps involved in obtaining the Series 7 license including passing two exams— Securities Industry Essentials Exam (also known as the SIE Exam) and the General Securities Representative Qualification Examination (GS).
