Edija Saripova

Edija (Pronounced: Eh-D-ee-uh) Saripova is a Service Advisor and specializes in helping those in need and offering support without prejudice. She believes that mental, physical, and financial wellbeing are equally essential to leading a balanced and fulfilling life. Her focus on financial health stems from the profound relief her clients feel when they gain clarity about their financial future – this is possible with education and a clearly written financial plan. Edija leverages her investment consulting experience by managing various employer sponsored retirement plans, with a strong emphasis on in-person participant education.  Her background in tax accounting allows her to identify strategic and innovative ways for clients to build and preserve intergenerational wealth. Passionate for empowering others, she leads a community of Women Who Invest™ – a network of women committed to investing in themselves, supporting one another, and uplifting their communities, no matter where they are on their financial journey.

Before joining DWM, Edija cultivated 17 years of experience in the financial industry. When Edija was 18 years old, she migrated to the United States with the dream of becoming a businesswoman. Edija graduated summa cum laude from the University of Missouri—St. Louis, earning her bachelor's degree in science with an emphasis in accounting. She began her career with Edward Jones, working into a senior accountant position. There Edija analyzed net income from operations and trends in consumer investment product demand.

After Edward Jones, Edija moved to an institutional investment consulting firm advising large pension plans, then on to an investment managing firm Janus Henderson Investors as a member of the North American Sales Team. She was responsible for performing in-depth analysis to provide clients with investment solutions, capital market research, and portfolio performance reports.

In her free time, Edija is a traditional Coloradoan, enjoying camping, snowboarding, and hiking. She also plays violin and piano and loves to woodwork, crafting anything from coasters to furniture.
