BIO
Meet Tyler Young
Tyler joined the SFMG team in 2023 and is a Wealth Advisor as well as the firm’s Head of Advisory. Prior to joining SFMG, Tyler held various Financial Planning and Investment Management roles at other independent wealth management firms in Dallas-Fort Worth and a regional bank based out of Amarillo, Texas.
Tyler was drawn to SFMG by their culture, approach to comprehensive wealth management, and people. He loves working with clients to simplify complex topics, build unique financial plans and portfolios to fit their goals, and help implement those plans and portfolios.
Outside of the office, Tyler enjoys reading books/listening to audiobooks, playing (very mediocre) golf, and spending time with friends, family, and his rescue dog, Dakota. On long weekends, he enjoys travelling to Amarillo to catch up with friends and family, cheer on his hometown West Texas A&M Buffaloes, and hike Palo Duro Canyon.

The extremely underrated V8 energy drinks.
Mostly books and audiobooks. Reigning in my Half Price Books/Audible budget is always a challenge…
