MY BACKGROUND:
Education
- Southern New Hampshire University, 2025
I’m Nick Kurdziel, a financial advisor with SteadWise Wealth Advisors, and I’m passionate about helping individuals and families feel confident about their financial future. After earning my degree in Finance from Southern New Hampshire University, I began my career at SteadWise and have had the opportunity to learn firsthand what it truly means to serve clients with care, integrity, and attention to detail.
I’ve now completed all required licensing exams and am excited to take the next step in my career as a fully licensed advisor. While building my own practice, I continue to work closely with the SteadWise team, assisting with client service and ongoing planning needs. This collaborative approach allows me to stay deeply involved in supporting our clients while growing relationships of my own.
MY APPROACH:
I understand that being a younger advisor may give some people pause. At SteadWise, however, we work as a true team to help clients achieve their goals. Together, our advisors bring more than 70 years of combined experience to the table, ensuring that every client benefits from both fresh perspective and seasoned guidance. You can feel confident knowing that you’re supported not just by one advisor, but by an experienced team working in your best interest.
ABOUT ME:
I was born and raised in Holtsville on Long Island, New York, and being part of this community means a great deal to me. Growing up, martial arts played a major role in my life. I earned my 2nd-degree black belt in Kempo and taught martial arts from the age of 10 through 22, helping run classes and mentor students of all ages. The discipline, patience, and leadership I developed through those years continue to shape how I approach my work with clients today.
When I’m not working, you can usually find me following football as a lifelong New York Giants fan. I value teamwork, dedication, and consistency—both on and off the field—and I bring those same principles into every client relationship.
