Justin Cason is not your typical financial advisor. He brings a unique blend of compassion and expertise to Lumos Wealth Advisors, a result of his diverse background and commitment to helping others.
Before embarking on his career as a financial advisor, Justin spent nearly 15 years running a local chapter of the non-profit organization Young Life. This experience allowed him to master the art of caring for people and giving them the time and attention they deserve. He learned that building deep, meaningful relationships and being there for others when they need it most are the cornerstones of making a positive impact in people’s lives. He believes that financial success is not only about achieving monetary goals but also about enriching your life and the lives of those you care about.
These invaluable lessons have left an indelible mark on Justin’s approach to financial advising. He understands that financial decisions are not just about numbers; they’re deeply personal and often come with a myriad of emotions and concerns. Justin is dedicated to putting people first and providing the highest level of care in the financial realm, a principle he holds close to his heart.
Beyond his professional life, Justin is a devoted family man. He and his wife are the proud parents of three wonderful children, who bring joy and inspiration to their lives every day. Whether it’s hiking through the scenic trails of their favorite nature spots, fly fishing in the peaceful serenity of a nearby river, or passionately supporting all things Virginia Tech athletics, family and shared experiences are central to Justin’s life.
