CJ Grisar

CJ joined Boardwalk Financial Strategies in 2025 as an Associate Wealth Manager. He brings a strong foundation in finance and analytics, paired with a team-oriented mindset shaped by his time as a collegiate athlete.

CJ graduated from Drake University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, majoring in Finance with a minor in Data Analytics. During his time at Drake, he interned with Blue Cross Blue Shield on their Financial Planning & Analysis team, where he supported budgeting, forecasting, and corporate financial strategy initiatives. In addition to his academic achievements, CJ played Division I football for the Drake Bulldogs, learning the importance of discipline, resilience, and collaboration—skills he applies in his work today.

CJ is excited to be part of a firm that values meaningful client relationships, supports professional growth, and emphasizes comprehensive planning.

Outside of work, CJ enjoys spending time outdoors, golfing, watching sports, cooking, and spending time with friends and family. He looks forward to getting involved in the community and growing in his role at Boardwalk Financial Strategies.
