John Reid was born and raised in Gainesville, FL before moving to Montgomery, AL. When he was younger, his sister could not pronounce his name, calling him Joppa instead. The nickname stuck and is what he commonly goes by. Upon graduating high school, he attended the University of Alabama where he graduated Summa Cum Laude with a B.S. in Finance and a minor in Real Estate.
Joppa began his role in the Oxford office, assisting the administration of financial plans and intends to become a fully licensed advisor in the near future. He enjoys spending time with friends and family, being outdoors, and cheering on the Crimson Tide.
