Jim Back is an Evansville native and proud graduate of North High School. Prior to becoming a Financial Advisor, Jim worked for the Indiana House of Representatives as a legislative aide. He gained firsthand knowledge of how a bill really becomes a law, but the best part of his experience in politics was meeting Amy. In 2006, Jim became a licensed Financial Advisor with Edward Jones Investments. He and Amy got married and eventually had four children, Maggie, Joseph, Caroline and Samuel- and a Saint Bernard (Mollie). In 2022, Jim and his partners formed Riverside Capital Management Group so they could serve clients at a deeper level. Jim is a fiduciary and a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® practitioner. As an independent firm, Riverside Capital Management Group has hired one of the world’s largest banks for account custodianship and back-office support- Wells Fargo Advisors.
Jim has always been active in the community. He has been involved on the boards of Youth First, Evansville Rotary, Downtown Evansville EID, Vanderburgh County Community Foundation, Evansville Police Foundation, and the St Joseph Catholic School Board.
Jim’s investment philosophy is simple- your money (capital) should always be working. Capital is a tool, not the goal. Freedom is the goal.
As Operations Manager, Kelbe Douglass makes life easier for both the clients and advisors at Riverside Capital Management Group. From opening accounts, to processing rollovers & transfers, to answering client questions, Kelbe specializes in all things operations.
Kelbe draws on over 10 years of experience in the financial industry to streamline the processes & procedures at Riverside. After working with Jim Back at a previous firm for 9 years, she helped him pioneer Riverside Capital Management Group.
A native of Newport, IN, Kelbe, her husband, and son are now thrilled to reside in Evansville. An entrepreneur herself, she sells her handmade items at markets & bazaars when she isn’t in the office. When she gets some time to herself, you’ll find Kelbe spending time with family, reading & writing novels, and crafting!
Bailey Vize brings a hard work ethic, out-of-the box thinking, and a sense of wit to her role as Client Service Associate at Riverside Capital Management Group. Her great love for the Evansville community is only matched by her dedication to helping people plan for the future.
