TheLiveBigWay® Digest: Rising Stars and Retirement

Dear Readers,

It is with great excitement that we share two major announcements today:

Lauren Stansell and Yusuf Abugideiri have been named to InvestmentNews’ inaugural Rising Stars list.
Yeske Buie Founders, Dr. Dave Yeske and Elissa Buie, will be retiring at the end of 2025.

The timing of these two milestones is both intentional and fortuitous:

  • Elissa and Dave have invested over a decade of time, energy, and resources into supporting and mentoring Lauren and Yusuf to be stewards of Yeske Buie’s standard of excellence and unwavering core values;
  • Lauren and Yusuf (along with partner and COO Lauren Mireles) have committed to learning, leading, and challenging themselves over and over again throughout their careers to meet (and hopefully exceed) the expectations of our Clients and team; and.
  • Their combined commitment to growth, to the firm, to our Clients, and to each other resulted in the rise of two brilliantly talented stars, and the ability for two brilliantly talented pioneers to retire and enjoy their next chapter of life.

In other words, everyone involved has displayed immense levels of trust, and the result is a soulful organization that has been profoundly shaped by the legacy of our Founders and is abuzz with young, fresh energy, paving the way for a bold and dynamic future. What can you expect going forward?

NEW ENERGY, SAME STANDARD.

Dave and Elissa will continue to be actively involved in the business until their retirement to continue guiding the team with their wisdom and experience to ensure the continued success of Yeske Buie Clients. And while their active work at Yeske Buie may end by 2026, they will remain involved with the firm as needed going forward. As for Client contact, they will remain available for that blessing forever. They look forward to seeing Clients at and outside of Client events.

We hope you find these announcements to be as celebratory as we do, and we continue to be completely available to discuss the upcoming transition via email, phone, Zoom, or in person. Please don’t hesitate to connect with us to share your thoughts and questions.

Excitedly,

The Yeske Buie Team
