About Altair Watson

I have lived in Brevard County for over 30 years, where I graduated from Melbourne High School, University of Central Florida with my bachelor’s degree and Florida Institute of Technology with my master’s degree. Since graduating, I’ve dedicated myself to serve the communities I work and live in, their children and families, local businesses and my family. In the beginning of my professional career, I worked as a Brevard County school teacher educating over students in the concepts of algebra, biology, space/earth science and marine biology. During that time, I worked diligently with families to create a plan necessary for their child’s educational success and was nominated teacher of the year by my colleagues because of student improvement. Today, I continue to serve my clients by striving to understand what’s important to them. The tools I gained during my career as an educator certifies me the expertise to provide understanding to my clients of the established process we use with investing and create a customized strategy to reach their financial goals. Together, we modify this personalized plan during the changes that occur in their lives. In 2016, I was named the women’s leader for East Central Florida region, making me responsible for 20+ women financial advisors. Also, I’ve been named a subordinate limited partner for our firm. Within my branch, alongside with senior branch office administrator Jamie Wannamaker, we have 20-plus years of experience servicing clients in helping them reach their financial goals. Past and current community service includes; freshman, junior varsity and varsity coach for volleyball, track, cross-country and surfing; president & member of Rotary Club in Palm Bay; local sponsor Children’s Home Society, local sponsor Special Olympics, local sponsor Habit for Humanity, local sponsor and advocate for Surfrider Foundation, local sponsor and gift collector Toys for Tots, local sponsor and walk organizer Alzheimer’s For instructions to opt out of Edward Jones commercial messaging and other important disclosures, see
