Kingsview Partners Welcomes Wealth Manager | Partner Paul Sweeney II

Former Edward Jones Advisor Opens Office in Steubenville, OH 

Kingsview Partners proudly announces the opening of their newest independent office near Steubenville, Ohio, led by Partner and Wealth Manager Paul Sweeney II, AAMS®. A Steubenville native, Paul brings over 11 years of financial experience to the Kingsview platform, along with a remarkable background in both military service and commercial construction. 

Before entering the financial services industry, Paul served as an infantry sniper in the U.S. Army with a deployment to Afghanistan. His military career taught him discipline, focus, and responsibility—traits that continue to shape his approach to client service today. After returning home, he transitioned into a role as a senior project manager, overseeing large-scale commercial construction projects. But a deeper calling led him elsewhere. 

“When I was deployed, I started thinking about whether I had truly made an impact,” Paul says. “Through prayer and reflection, I came home with a conviction: I wanted to help people gain control of their lives—starting with their finances.” 

Today, Paul specializes in retirement-focused financial planning and comprehensive wealth management. He works with individuals and families who have built significant assets and are looking for a steady partner to help them transition into and through retirement. His planning process centers on structure, education, and peace of mind—addressing fear and uncertainty with clarity and care. 

“I get to watch clients go from stressed and overwhelmed to confident and excited,” Paul says. “It’s deeply rewarding to see that spark return to their lives once they feel they’re in control and supported.” 

Paul holds both his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Kent State University. Outside the office, his world revolves around his wife Kayla and their four children—Micah, Olivia, Ava, and Elly. The family enjoys traveling, spending time outdoors, and exploring culture together. Paul is also an avid reader, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, and lifelong learner. 

Kingsview Partners CEO Sean McGillivray shared his enthusiasm, saying, “Paul’s character, discipline, and client-centered mindset are exactly what we look for in a Partner. We’re honored to welcome him to Kingsview and excited to support his continued success.”
