Prospera Financial Services Welcomes Alphera

Prospera Financial Services, Inc., a boutique wealth management firm supporting a nationwide network of independent advisors, announced that Alphera Wealth Advisors has joined its platform.

Christina McCaughey, RICP is the founder and financial advisor with Alphera. McCaughey focuses on personal financial planning, retirement strategies, wealth management, financial protection, tax efficient strategies and alternative investments. She also assists companies with 401(k) plans and employee benefits.

“For over twenty years, I worked on Wall Street supporting major financial institutions with complex projects, always focusing on detail, excellence, and results,” said Ms. McCaughey. “I apply the same dedication to my advisory practice, aiming for lasting value for clients and their families. When considering how to operate independently at this level, Prospera was clearly the right fit.”

McCaughey explained that the skill level and experience of the back-office support team, strong and business-minded compliance group and the true independence of the firm were critical in her decision to join Prospera.

Tarah Williams, Prospera’s president and COO, added, “Prospera continues to attract advisors who are intentional about how they serve their clients and grow their businesses. Christina is an elite advisor whose approach aligns seamlessly with our culture and platform. We’ve built an environment that empowers advisors to deliver best-in-class service with a deeply personal touch, and I look forward to working with Christina for years to come.”
