Andrew Poston

From the time that his grandfather opened a UTMA account for him in 1996, Andrew has loved finance. A native of Salisbury, North Carolina, Andrew is a graduate of East Rowan High School and The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. He earned his Eagle Scout Award in 2011. He began his career as a classroom teacher, teaching Economics and Personal Finance in three counties over the course six years. After helping to instruct other teachers on how to teach the Economics and Personal Finance curriculum, he rediscovered that his true passion was finance.

In May of 2025, he made the transition away from the classroom and began working at Edward Jones in Salisbury. In October of 2026, after seeking to work for a firm that would allow him to put clients at the center of everything he does, Andrew decided to take his practice semi-independent and proudly joined Fortress Financial Partners under the name “Poston Wealth Management.” Andrew is grateful that he gets to carry out God’s mission for him every day by enriching the lives of his clients, colleagues, and the communities in which he serves.

Andrew lives in Monroe, North Carolina with his beautiful wife, Alexandra, their two dogs, Mason and Maybelle, and their cat Leonard. When he is not working, you can find him on the golf course, umpiring high school baseball, or spending time with his friends and family.
