Born and raised in Westfield, NJ, Kathryn (KJ) Yuengel brings a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to her role at WillowStone Wealth Management. Kathryn’s career in the financial industry began uniquely. On October 19, 1987, the day of the market crash, she embarked on her journey with the Westfield Office of Butcher & Singer as an eager 19-year-old. The experience of that day left a lasting impression on her, and now, 37 years later, the industry remains an integral part of her life.
Her professional mission is to always hold herself to a high standard, ensuring maximum effort in every task. Kathryn thrives on the unpredictable nature of her work, where no two days are ever the same. The diversity of clients and the ever-changing market keep her engaged and enthusiastic.
Outside of work, Kathryn enjoys cooking (but not baking), gardening, trips to Atlantic City, and watching the Yankees. She cherishes family time, particularly cheering on the NY Yankees and NY Giants, and hosting Sunday BBQs with family and friends.
