Craig Paulson is the founder and president of Altura Financial Advisors. He graduated from Brigham Young University in 1996 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and Business Management. In addition to holding an Accident, Health and Life Insurance license, Craig is registered to sell securities and provide investment advice. He utilizes his passion for paying attention to details in his employee benefits, insurance and financial services career, which began in 1995. During the first six years of his profession, he turned a part-time college job into a successful practice and in 2001 merged with another employee benefits firm. This opportunity allowed Craig to gain valuable knowledge related to larger employer groups, including self-funding experience. After absorbing more knowledge, growing his block of business and seeing a need for continuing his service expectations, Craig established his own firm, Altura Benefits, which opened in 2005 and has grown every year since.

Staying active is important to Craig. He enjoys traveling, skiing, golf and running. He completed one marathon and a number of half-marathons. He has skied in Canada, Austria, Dubai and many resorts across the U.S.; however, his favorite ski resorts lie within Utah's Wasatch Front. He also enjoys spending time with his wonderful wife and four children.

Ty joined the Altura team in January 2023 as a Relationship Manager. He has immediately found joy in learning the ins and outs of how Altura can accelerate financial well-being for both individual and group clients. He loves to learn and thoroughly enjoys interacting with people.

Shortly after graduating from High School, Ty had the opportunity to move to Mexico to serve as a religious missionary for his church, exposing him to a new culture and language which he learned to love.

Ty has spent the last 4 years working in the tech space facilitating strategic partner relations which gave him the ability to dissect the goals of individuals and discover the best solutions for differing situations. This also provided a channel to learn to listen and understand needs in order to pull the correct parties together to build each other up. He is currently a Senior at Utah Valley University where he is finalizing a Bachelors in Science, Business Management degree with an emphasis on Personal Finance.

Ty’s greatest joys in life come from his wife and son. He loves the outdoors including climbing, mountain biking, and boating. In his spare time, Ty likes to read and work on projects around his home.
