Herb Council, president – Herb started his career in financial services with New York Life.  After three years, his desire for independence and his belief that clients could best be served with a menu of options drove him to open Council and Associates, Inc. which later became Council Financial, Inc.  He has been very active in community activities and was elected a Wake County Commissioner in 1998.  He served as Chairman one of the eight years he dedicated to public service.  Today, he devotes all his energy to Council Financial, Inc. Licensed to sell insurance and annuities in NC.
 
Mike Willauer, senior vice president – Mike got his start in the financial services industry approximately 15 years ago and worked for several bank trust departments before joining Herb in 2002 sighting a growing need for true independence and unbiased advice in a confusing industry.  Mike’s primary focus is on investment strategies and portfolio management but his experience in the trust industry also provided exposure to complex estate strategies.  Today Mike leverages his unique experience with Council Financial’s independent business model to deliver unparalleled service quality and comprehensive investment solutions. Licensed to sell insurance and annuities in NC.

Aaron Pinkston, director of insurance – Aaron started in the insurance field with John Hancock and as he began to grow professionally, he saw the need to move to an independent and objective platform.  He made a switch working in a wholesale capacity for over 20 companies as an insurance brokerage manager – the type of guy your insurance agent would call when they got into a tough spot.  His role supporting other insurance agents and brokers gave him the rare opportunity to learn by guiding other agents to the right choices.  Today he is excited to bring his knowledge and experience directly to the public, choosing to focus on helping individuals who already own insurance. Aaron Pinkston is not affiliated with the O.N. Equity Sales Company.
