Christine Barry
Christine graduated from Framingham State college in Business Administration/Finance. She worked as a bank teller at age 16 all through college. That is when she knew that she wanted to work in the financial world in some capacity. Christine started working with Putnam Investments right out of college and was there for 10 years in various positions. She found that each position was more intriguing than the previous. As much as she enjoyed working, Christine made the tough and rewarding decision to take a break and dedicate herself to raising her family of three children. When all three children were in school full time, she was grateful for the opportunity to again work within the financial realm part-time from home. Now that her children are a bit older, it is ideal for her to work in an office again. One day she looked on LinkedIn job opportunities and there it was, at the top of her search, SK Wealth Management, the unicorn of a job that she never thought existed.
