Director of Growth & Innovation - AltruVista Wealth
As the Director of Growth & Innovation, my main focus is establishing strong relationships within the community while also serving as a strategic member of the leadership team for AltruVista. AltruVista helps business owners and their families navigate the intersection of business and personal wealth. Our proprietary process, Wealth with Purpose®, uses innovative strategies to capture your vision and integrate your professional advisor team.
I double majored with my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Business with a focus in Marketing from Houston Baptist University. I have always had a strong passion for helping others and thrive on building strong rapport and relationships. My experience working across multiple industries assists me in bringing a broad and strategic vision to our team. My strong and charismatic personality means I never meet a stranger. I am known for my tenacity, grit, persistence, and willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty to get the job done. My colleagues and clients call me a friend because I take the time to build relationships that matter. My creativity affords me the know-how to see the big picture while being able to break it down into small and achievable goals. I have proven success in building out new territories, increasing and maximizing profits, building rapport that keeps clients loyal, and hitting my own personal goals.
Additionally, I serve on the National Business Development Association Board of Directors as the Director of Marketing. NBDA is a non-profit focused on providing best practices for business owners, advisors and professionals tasked with developing new business by building relationships with current clients, new clients, centers of influence, vendors, partners and organizations. Our panelists and speakers are successful CEOs, CFOs, Presidents and Managing Partners who share their experience and advice on how to get to the next level. Check out more at NBDA.co. The members of NBDA strongly believe in order to be a great business development professional, you must focus on others and their needs before focusing on yourself. You will find this philosophy at the center of everything that is taught at the NBDA.
On a personal level, I am an avid sports fan and mom to a great kid. You will find me every weeknight and weekend cheering on the sidelines for my son, Justin, a Sophomore at Tomball Memorial High School who plays Varsity football and baseball. We are busy and that's just the way we like it!

Ep013: Helping Veterans Transition with Tina Salisbury
November 10th, 2021 | 34 mins 28 secs
Today on the NBDA Podcast, our guest host, Sue Ellen Burch, Director of Growth & Innovation at AltruVista Wealth, is speaking with Tina Salisbury, Partner Development Manager with Combined Arms, a nonprofit organization that helps military veterans successfully transition into civilian life.
Tina is responsible for administering the due-diligence process of vetting best-in-class organizations to provide services to veterans and their families. She also looks after managing partner training, onboarding development, and expansion of the organization nationally.
Before working with Combined Arms, Tina served her country for over nine years as a personnel officer in the United States Air Force. She was commissioned from Texas State University Air Force ROTC, where she received a BS in general studies with concentrations in mass communication, family and consumer sciences, and aerospace studies.
This is a great conversation with someone responsible for many areas of business development, and her service approach gives some great insights.
