PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FL--(Marketwired - Sep 8, 2016) - Fulcrum Partners LLC continues its aggressive growth commitment, hiring Financial Consultant, Kenneth DePaola. DePaola joins Managing Director Tom Chisholm at the Fulcrum Partners Chicago office.

Kenny DePaola comes to Fulcrum Partners from Northwestern Mutual, where he was honored with both the Agency Growth Award and the Bronze Award. He is a 2007 graduate of Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana, is licensed by the Illinois Department of Insurance and holds Series 6 and 63 FINRA licensing.

Tom Chisholm observed, "Kenny exemplifies the type of exceptional young talent we are attracting and encouraging at Fulcrum Partners. The need for highly trained specialists who understand the subtleties and complexities of executive benefits issues has never been greater.

"For Fulcrum Partners to expand its team of directors and consultants by 29 percent over the past eight months is significant and noteworthy; it speaks both to our commitment to growth and to our demonstrated success in providing effective benefit strategies that create optimal returns for organizations and their key executives."
