Meet Your Advisor

Armond L. Herndon, CFP, MBA

Financial Advisor

I’m Armond Herndon, a Financial Advisor based in Anaheim, CA with over 13 years of experience in financial services. My journey began at 18 years old when I enlisted in the U.S. Army, serving 8 years in logistics which I proudly completed a tour in Iraq during the height of the war. Later, I transitioned to the U.S. Air Force as a Civil Engineer for 3 years—these experiences have shaped my commitment to discipline, service, and precision.

Today, I bring that same mission-driven mindset to financial advising. I hold a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation and an MBA in Financial Planning. My approach is rooted in trust, transparency, and a deep understanding of each client’s unique financial story.

Outside of work, I enjoy watching competitive sports and staying active through working out, pickleball and golf—activities that keep me grounded and connected to my community.
