Our Principals

Bryant Jean Baptiste

Many people often ask me how I got into this industry. It may be a shock to know that several years ago, I used to be in the dental field. I really enjoyed dentistry, but it did not allow much time with my family. A good friend of mine presented me with an opportunity and two things really caught my attention... helping families and flexibility. So I jumped at the opportunity and have not looked back since.

OWNER / CEO OF ELITE FINANCIAL GROUP

I often say to my clients, "I'm going to treat you like I would my own mother!" I live by that every day and because of it, in the past 8 years, I've had the privilege to help so many families and build great relationships!

Family means everything to me! I have a supportive wife and two beautiful daughters that are my daily motivation! They encompass who I am as a man, husband, and father and I strive to make them proud in all the things I do. I look forward to connecting with you, not only to establish a great relationship, but to plan for a successful future for you and your loved ones!

Most people who know me, know that I love basketball! With any basketball team, the players are extremely valuable to the coach and to the success of the team. The remainder of this page is dedicated to the introduction of those crucial members of our agency - our Admin Team.

Tony D'Abbondanza

My journey to the financial industry was like many I know…. by mistake. I spent several years in the staffing world, helping companies grow their talent pool and find ways to increase their reach. I had an opportunity to assist a financial agency, and well… the rest is history. I had the chance to learn the field and eventually joined that company as their Recruiting Director, then moving up to becoming the CEO of the organization. I was hooked! Being able to be a part of our agents’ growth and our clients’ future was beyond rewarding!

CO-OWNER / COO OF ELITE FINANCIAL GROUP

Now as the Co-Owner / COO of Elite Financial Group, I intend to bring that same passion along with me in this journey. Being a business partner to a talented, driven, and intelligent professional such as Bryant is exciting. Both of us share the same spirit for helping and family-first focus. Being a husband to a beautiful and dynamic wife and a father to two amazing children drive my every move. In addition, having a strong and experienced administrative group as well as agent team here at EFG is extremely motivating.

One of the greatest lessons learned throughout my career is that people make the difference. Building strong relationships is essential to success. Elite Financial Group embodies that spirit, and I plan to continue to help that process!
