McBeath Financial Group is pleased to announce the addition of Kyleigh Snyder, CFP®, as a Financial Advisor, further expanding the depth and experience of its wealth management team serving Bloomington, Normal and the surrounding Central Illinois community. Kyleigh brings experience serving high-net-worth clients with complex financial needs, along with the relationship-focused approach that aligns closely with the firm's philosophy of financial planning.

Normal IL, Aug. 31, 2026 — CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® Kyleigh Snyder joins McBeath Financial Group, bringing several years of wealth management experience, including managing client relationships and providing guidance through complex financial decisions. Her background includes working collaboratively with investment, trust, and financial planning professionals on matters involving investment strategy, retirement assets, estate considerations, liquidity needs, and the long-term management of wealth.

A graduate of Illinois State University, Kyleigh earned her bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a minor in Financial Planning. While at ISU, she was active in Women in Business, participating in professional development and volunteer opportunities and serving as a mentor. Building upon her financial planning education and professional experience, Kyleigh went on to earn the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® certification, one of the financial planning profession's most recognized credentials and a reflection of the education, experience, examination, and ethical standards required of CFP® professionals.

“Adding an experienced Certified Financial Planner like Kyleigh is an exciting next step for our team,” said Krista McBeath, ChFC®, President of McBeath Financial Group. “What impressed us about Kyleigh goes beyond her experience and credentials. She genuinely enjoys getting to know people, she values the relationships that are so important to good financial planning, and she brings the kind of thoughtful, collaborative approach that fits naturally with our team and the way we serve clients.”

Kyleigh joins McBeath Financial Group during a period of continued growth for the firm. Her addition further strengthens a financial planning team that now includes three CFP® professionals and a Chartered Financial Consultant® (ChFC®), along with two Financial Planning Associates who are continuing to develop their careers in the profession.

While Kyleigh comes to the firm with valuable wealth management experience and the CFP® certification, her addition is also an investment in the future of the planning team. Through ongoing training in McBeath Financial Group's systems, processes, and comprehensive approach to retirement planning, she will continue developing her expertise while taking on greater responsibility within the organization. Developing talented professionals into the next generation of advisors and leaders remains an important part of the firm's long-term growth.

That development happens side-by-side. At a time when financial planning is increasingly being delivered remotely, every member of McBeath Financial Group's financial planning team works together onsite each day. The firm believes this environment supports ongoing training and collaboration, consistency and quality within its planning process, and the sharing of knowledge and experience across the team in serving each client.

That collaborative approach extends to client meetings. Local clients can meet with their financial planning team in person at the firm's Normal office, while technology allows multiple team members to participate together in conference calls and virtual meetings with clients outside Central Illinois. Whether a meeting takes place across a conference table or across the country, clients have access to a team of professionals collaborating on their financial planning needs.

Kyleigh's addition marks another important step in the continued growth of McBeath Financial Group's financial planning team. As the firm grows, its focus remains on adding the experience, credentials, and professional depth needed to continue providing clients with comprehensive financial planning and the personal, collaborative service that has long defined the firm.

McBeath Financial Group is a team of dedicated financial professionals collaborating to provide comprehensive wealth management, financial planning, and investment strategies. Our advisors and support staff work together to help clients grow and preserve their wealth, sustain a comfortable lifestyle, and leave a lasting legacy.

The McBeath Financial Group team utilizes advanced tools for in-depth calculations that analyze tax and retirement scenarios to help their clients avoid a future tax time-bomb. Whether this means enjoying more of your hard-earned money in retirement or passing along assets to loved ones with less tax burden, planning makes the difference.
