All three, Paul Irving, Gavin Shuck and John Stoner come from Wells Fargo Advisors and join as senior vice presidents.

“This team of advisors further demonstrates our commitment to expanding our presence in the Charlotte marketplace,” Rodney Lineberry, managing director and complex manager at Scott & Stringfellow, said.

The three have a combined total of nearly 50 years in the industry. Irving and Shuck both began their careers in 1997. Irving began at IDS Life Insurance in Minneapolis, Minn., and Shuck at PaineWebber, according to their public registration records with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

Stoner started out in Des Moines, Iowa, with Washington Square Securities in 1993 and had formerly been with BB&T from 1994 to 1998, according to FINRA records.

Scott and Stringfellow currently has 37 offices spread across the Southeast in Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.
