This is our story

Founded by Rex Clevenger, CFP®, CEPA®, Aristata Financial was created to offer personalized service and financial guidance for families and businesses. With 30+ years of experience at some of the largest financial institutions, Rex realized that true client-focused service required an independent and tailored approach.

In 2009, he and Wendy Cox established Aristata Financial, with a mission to provide comprehensive financial planning and investment management. The name “Aristata” reflects the longevity and resilience of the bristlecone pine, symbolizing Aristata Financial’s commitment to standing the test of time and guiding clients and their families for generations to come.

The name Aristata stems from the scientific name of one sub-species of bristlecone pine tree, Pinus Aristata. Bristlecone pines are known for their longevity and resilience with the oldest known Aristata tree estimated to be over 2,500 years old. Like the Pinus Aristata, we plan to stand the test of time for you and your family’s financial life. We are fully vested in your family’s financial wellness and we will remain so, generation after generation.
