A Team of Specialists

Generations of experience. A future-ready team.

Tryon Private Wealth Management Group is rooted in decades of experience, enduring client relationships, and an unwavering commitment to doing what’s right—generation after generation. Inspired by her father, a pioneering financial advisor, Kathleen Malone founded the practice more than 30 years ago. Today, the team has grown to six financial professionals, including Andy Sontag, CFP®, Senior Financial Advisor and third-generation financial advisor, and Emily Malone, Financial Advisor—Kathleen’s daughter and also a third-generation financial advisor. Together, the team fosters a culture built on shared values, collaboration, and a deep passion for helping families thrive.
