    As CEO of EverSource Wealth Advisors and CEO of BMSS Wesson Wealth Solutions, Mark envisioned and spearheaded the launch of these new initiatives in 2016. He leads enterprising teams in fulfilling the multi-faceted vision of both ventures. Mark is also the Co-Founder of the Lion's Den Birmingham...

    Mark has traveled extensively, consulting with and personally investing in business-as-missions companies globally.  He and his wife, Missi, are parents of four children and have recently celebrated the arrival of their first grandchild. When he’s not establishing new businesses, following investment trends, or analyzing spreadsheets, you are likely to find Mark fishing at his family lake house, welcoming local international students to Birmingham, or cheering for the Crimson Tide.
