Financial advisor Deena Mills joins Edward Jones in Millsboro

Deena Mills knows the value of a comfortable pair of shoes. That's because she has been introducing herself to the residents in Millsboro.

Mills is a new financial advisor for the financial services firm Edward Jones, and her neighborhood visits demonstrate the Edward Jones way of doing business – face to face.

Before a new Edward Jones financial advisor can open an office, he or she must spend several months introducing him- or herself to the residents and businesspeople in the community. Mills also had to complete one of the most rigorous training programs in the financial services industry.

Although she is well versed in the technical aspects of investments, the training isn't over. Edward Jones places a lot of emphasis on continuing education, and its financial advisors train throughout their careers.

Mills has 18 years of experience in the financial services industry. She has joined the office of Mitch Rogers, at 28587 DuPont Blvd. No. 2, Millsboro. To reach her, call 302-934-1938.
