Clark Oetting, CSLP®
Financial Advisor
About
Clark’s commitment to his clients is rooted in his loyal, hardworking nature, which empowers him to deliver exceptional service. As an independent financial planner for medical professionals, he works alongside North Star’s Medical Division, prioritizing goal-oriented financial planning, along with debt and risk management. His focus on building long-term relationships is driven by a dedication to truly understanding each client’s unique needs.
Clark joined North Star in the fall of 2024, bringing with him a passion for helping people achieve not just financial stability but their long-term dreams. Before making the switch to financial planning, he interned at a consulting firm where he worked closely with corporate clients. However, Clark soon realized he wanted a more personal touch in his career—one that allowed him to build meaningful relationships and make a direct impact on people’s lives.
A proud graduate of the University of Georgia’s Terry College of Business, Clark holds a BBA in finance. Outside of the office, he enjoys golfing, snow sports, cooking, and spending time with his beautiful wife, Gabrielle.
