Meet the Team

Conner Combs – Founder & CEO

Conner graduated from East Texas Baptist University with a BA in Business Administration and Accounting before completing his MBA — all in four years while playing collegiate baseball. During that time, he became only the second player in NCAA history to be named Academic All-American of the Year twice.

After graduating, Conner began his career in wealth management with Archetype Wealth Partners (now Arkos Global Advisors), where he spent three years as a Wealth Advisor serving athletes and children of high-net-worth families.

Conner’s passion is helping others live out their purpose. He believes stewardship extends well beyond finances — into every area of life — and brings the same work ethic he developed as a student-athlete to everything he does professionally.

Conner lives in Dallas, Texas with his wife, Sarah Rose, and their son, Caden. He is actively involved at Shoreline City Church, serves on the board of the Dallas Christian Leadership Prayer Breakfast, and will be joining the Board of Trustees at East Texas Baptist University in 2027. He also remains closely connected to the ETBU baseball program.

Pat Combs – Founder & Chairman

Pat began his wealth management career at Morgan Stanley in 2005, quickly rising to the top five percent of advisors within his first three years and earning recognition as a Five Star Wealth Manager in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. He later served as Director of the Dallas office for Archetype Wealth Partners, where he deepened his conviction that the best client outcomes come from a truly aligned advisory team.

Before entering financial services, Pat spent eight years playing professional baseball with the Philadelphia Phillies and Milwaukee Brewers. Drafted in the first round of the 1988 MLB Draft, he went on to represent Team USA at the 1988 Olympics. Since retiring from the game, Pat has stayed closely connected to sports through coaching, broadcasting with Fox Sports and ESPN, and serving as a leadership coach for various professional sports organizations.

Pat lives in Southlake, Texas with his wife, Christina. Together they have three sons — Carson, Conner, and Casey — and are proud grandparents to Caden. A Certified Kingdom Advisor, Pat is active in his local church and channels his love of baseball and faith into several meaningful roles: serving as Chairman of Unlimited Potential, a baseball ministry for professional players, and as a board member for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, the Baylor “B” Letterwinners Association, and Sports Challenge. He is also involved in the CEO Forum and the Spiritual Leadership Institute.

Chris Scott – Wealth Advisor

Chris entered the financial services industry in 2022 after completing his Series 65, bringing with him over 20 years of experience managing assets for a major midstream oil and gas company. That background gives him a distinctive perspective on industry-specific financial planning that few advisors can offer.

Chris holds a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Safety and a Master’s degree in Human Resource Development from the University of Texas at Tyler, where he graduated with honors. He is currently completing his MBA with a concentration in Marketing and Cybersecurity.

At the core of everything Chris does is a genuine desire to see people grow — in their finances, their families, and their faith. He is committed to partnering with individuals and families to build financial plans that are practical, purposeful, and aligned with their long-term goals.

Chris resides in Longview, Texas with his wife, Robin, and their three children — Hunter, Katelynn, and Addisynn. The Scott family is deeply involved at Mobberly Baptist Church, and when he’s not at a sports event or dance recital, Chris can usually be found hunting, fishing, or on the golf course.
