I’m Devin Zeisset, financial advisor at Oregon Insurance & Financial Services. I was born in Cleveland and grew up in Brunswick, Ohio.

After graduating high school, I joined the United States Marine Corps and served on active duty for five years. I felt military service calling me after I watched, on a TV rolled into my elementary classroom, the Twin Towers fall. On the news the next day, I saw the faces of uniformed young men and women boarding aircraft that would take them to an obscure place where they would defend our nation. I knew that I had to be one of those young service members when I was old enough to do so. My occupation in the Marine Corps was meteorology and oceanography.

After the Marine Corps, I came home and earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from The Ohio State University. While attending school, I worked with the university’s athletic marketing department to plan, coordinate, and execute military appreciation games for all of Ohio State’s spectated sports.

While living in Columbus, my wife, Erin and I started discussing the future and we decided it was best to move back to NW Ohio, my wife’s hometown, to be closer to family as we started a family of our own. Erin is a 3rd-grade teacher in Oregon. We have a baby daughter together named Ruth. Erin and I love to float around in our canoe, explore, read, exercise, and play Lego Star Wars together. Ruth loves the outdoors, applesauce, and riding on shoulders.
