about us
A Boutique Approach to Wealth Management
After years working at a large financial firm, Dustin Riggs and Rick Humphreys founded Blue Star Wealth in 2021 with one goal: to provide truly independent, deeply personal financial advice that puts clients first.
We saw how big institutions often focus more on transactions than relationships. That’s why we created a firm where every client is valued, heard, and guided holistically — no matter their portfolio size.
We don’t just manage assets — we help you design a future worth looking forward to.
Our Mission
To simplify the complex, deliver value beyond investments, and build lifelong partnerships rooted in trust.
Blue Star Wealth gave me something I didn’t realize I was missing — clarity. Dustin and Rick truly listened, and their guidance helped me organize my entire financial life, not just my investments.

Their independence matters. Knowing that I’m getting advice that isn’t driven by sales quotas gives me peace of mind. I trust them completely.”

I’ve worked with large firms before, but I’ve never experienced this level of personal service. With Blue Star, I’m not just a number — I’m a priority.

The customized portfolio they built for me reflected not just my goals, but my values. I appreciated how they included socially responsible investing without sacrificing returns.
