About Ben Barbour — Co-Founder & Lead Advisor
Ben Barbour is the Co-Founder and Lead Advisor at Fountainhead Wealth Advisors. He earned his degree in Economics from George Mason University before beginning his career advising organizations like NASA and Honda on complex project management solutions. That experience sharpened his systems-driven approach to problem-solving — a foundation he later brought into financial services.
Inspired by his grandfather, a CPA and financial planner, Ben transitioned into wealth management and built a thriving practice in Northern Virginia. Over the past decade, he has guided families across the country in developing sound investment strategies and retirement income plans.
When the pandemic reshaped how clients wanted to work with their advisors, Ben led Fountainhead’s pivot to a virtual, tech-forward model. This made the practice more accessible nationwide while continuing to serve its Northern Virginia roots.
Today, the Barbours run Fountainhead as a true family business from their new office on Solomons Island, Maryland. They commute together to the island, with their daughters in school just a block away, and occasionally bring along a rotating cast of their four dogs — Grace, Ginger, Tiny, and Maggie — who are regulars on the boardwalk. Behind the office, the family keeps a sailboat, fishing boat, and jet ski, which serve as both alternative client meeting spaces and family escapes between school, work, and community life on the island.
