Three Decades of Operational Excellence and Leadership
With a 30-year career launching, owning, and managing service-based companies, and over three decades working closely with Stan Cortland, Elaine Miner ensures that our clients and advisory team have the support and operational precision they need to succeed.
A Career Built on Service and Adaptation
"My focus is simple: keeping our operations running seamlessly so our advisors can focus entirely on delivering the best results for our clients.", Elaine Miner, Executive Assistant
Elaine Miner’s entrepreneurial journey began at the age of 21, when she began a decade-long tenure managing her father’s Bay Area insurance business. That early foundation sparked a 30-year career dedicated to launching, owning, and managing service-based companies. From commercial printing and financing to property management and senior home care, Elaine has loved adapting to the unique challenges of different industries.
Additionally, Elaine has spent over three decades working closely with Stan Cortland as his executive assistant, providing the organizational backbone and logistical support that enables the firm's advisory operations to function at the highest standard.
A Utah native raised in the Bay Area, now a resident of St. George, Utah, she takes full advantage of the region's great weather, outdoor activities, and beautiful scenery with her mother and daughter.
