Vitae

Gordon is HFF’s Gift Planning Specialist. He holds a master’s degree in accounting from Utah State University and brings more than 30 years of experience as a CFP® (Certified Financial Planner), investment advisor, and CPA (Certified Public Accountant), with extensive work serving nonprofit organizations and their donors.

Gordon is passionate about helping individuals use gift planning to make a meaningful difference for the Henry’s Fork and other causes they love—often in ways they never imagined possible—while also benefiting themselves and their families.

An avid outdoorsman and fisherman since childhood, Gordon continues to enjoy outdoor adventures whenever he can.

“The Henry’s Fork and its watershed have touched my life—and many others’—in so many positive ways. It’s my honor and pleasure to help others experience the joy of protecting and preserving such a special place.”
