Catherine E Metzger-Silver

I learned the value of a dollar at an early age. When I was 6, every day after school, I walked down to my parent's restaurant and peeled carrots for an hour. I was paid $1.00 an hour, which in the early seventies was pretty good! I understand the work it takes to earn every dollar, and the respect with which it should be treated. Growing up in small business lit the fire in me to help others succeed and understand the hard work it takes to be successful - in personal and business finances.

Currently celebrating my 10th year, I began my career with Edward Jones by opening the first Edward Jones office in the Annapolis Valley in 2012 after having worked with RBC for the previous seven years. I have built my practice one client at time through the delivery of a high level of service, quality advice and responsible investment strategies.

I'm an active member of the Annapolis Valley Community and serve on several boards and committees. I am the Chair of the AVCC Women of Excellence Awards, a program that seeks to inspire and engage all community members by recognizing the achievements of women in the community in the areas of mentorship, leadership and engagement. I am also the 2nd Vice Chair of the Annapolis Valley Chamber of Commerce.

I have been honored to be recognized for my professional and volunteer work over the years and was very pleased to have received the 2022 Wealth Professional Female Trailblazer of the Year Award in recognition of the innovation and commitment I have brought to my profession.

I have lived in the Annapolis Valley for two decades. I have been married for 23 years to my husband Jeff, a Corporate Tax Lawyer, and we have one daughter, Olivia, who is not just the apple of our eye, but the whole orchard! As a family, we enjoy travelling, opera and other performing arts. Having grown up in the restaurant business, I'm a serious Foodie and enjoy cooking. My signature dish? Chocolate Truffles!

At Edward Jones, we focus on you. The firm has thousands of people and advanced technology supporting our office so that we can help you, your business and your family reach your long-term financial goals. I take great pride in making a meaningful difference in my clients' lives by helping them achieve their most important financial goals through the implementation of wealth building, and protection, strategies.
