Meet Your Advisor


For more than 30 years, Mike Collins has helped individuals and families navigate important financial decisions and manage the wealth they have worked hard to accumulate.

Today, Mike's practice has a particular focus on helping clients who are approaching or already enjoying retirement. He works with clients to develop personalized investment and retirement income strategies designed around their individual goals, income needs, risk tolerance, and financial circumstances.

Mike believes financial advice should begin with understanding the person behind the portfolio. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, he takes the time to understand what is important to each client, what they want their money to accomplish, and the concerns they have about the years ahead.

A Florida native, Mike attended Boca Ciega High School, St. Petersburg Junior College, and Eckerd College. Before joining LPL Financial, he was affiliated with Raymond James.

Mike and his wife, Evangelia, live in the St. Petersburg area and are the parents of six children. Family is an important part of their lives, and they enjoy spending time with their children and grandchildren. Outside the office, Mike enjoys playing tennis and taking advantage of the Florida lifestyle.
