As Managing Partner & Private Wealth Advisor
of Argent Bridge Advisors, Dianne Nolin, CFP®, CDFA® owns the end to end client experience. She brings over 30 years of industry experience working at large firms like Shearson-Lehman Brothers and Smith Barney. She also worked at smaller independent firms.

Growing up in Pittsburgh and beginning her career amidst a city landscape full of bridges, they were a constant in the backdrop of her earliest days. Dianne sees a bridge as a visual, physical reminder of both the value of the staying connected as well as the more metaphorical concept of being the bridge between client expectations and realization of their goals.
Dianne's life focus is a strong love of family and friends, grounded in her roots and living her parents motto of "work hard and be kind". Argent Bridge Advisors is the fruition of a long term mission she has pursued for years through creative collaboration and connection with clients and the community.
