Allow me to introduce myself. My name is  Kevan Gaug, a financial planner/wealth manager and the Money Concepts Regional Manager for Houston Texas. As a Registered Investment Advisor associated with Money Concepts Advisory Service, who is registered with the SEC, all securities are offered thru Money Concepts Capital Corporation - member FINRA/SIPC. Non-securities and non-advisory products are offered through Money Concepts International.

While I was born in Akron, Ohio, I spent my childhood moving frequently as the son of a Marine. Those early years taught me the value of independence and an unwavering work ethic—values that are at the heart of everything I do today. As an only son raised alongside three sisters, I stepped into the role of protector early on. That "big brother" spirit is exactly what I bring to my clients today: I listen, I look out for you, and I treat your financial future with the same care I’d give my own family.

Today, my life is full of joy from a large, vibrant blended family with a brood of offspring. My faith is my compass, and I’ve been a faithful member of The Woodlands Church for over 25 years. These deep roots and life experiences allow me to truly understand the nuances of the families I serve.

My professional journey wasn’t handed to me. I worked my way through high school and put myself through college, eventually spending decades navigating the corporate world and the ups and downs of starting small businesses. This "school of hard knocks" taught me one vital lesson: you cannot leave your future to chance; you have to plan for it.

I found my true calling in the financial profession in 2000. After years of managing business finances and seeing the impact of poor advice, I started with Ameriprise Financial (formerly American Express). However, as my practice grew, I realized that to be the best possible advocate for my clients, I needed to be independent. Joining Money Concepts allowed me to do just that—providing wealth management that puts your interests first, without the corporate conflicts of interest. I chose to be an independent advisor so that I could always look you in the eye and know that my advice is focused solely on what is best for you and your family.
