Dave Hood brings a deep-rooted commitment to integrity, hard work, and community service to his role at Hood Financial Group. A lifelong resident of Owosso, Michigan, Dave’s values were shaped early on through summers spent baling hay, tending a family garden, and working at Hood’s Soda Pop Shoppe – his family’s local business. These formative experiences instilled in him a strong work ethic and a deep respect for people, principles that continue to guide his professional and personal life.
Since entering the financial services industry in 2004, Dave has built a reputation for thoughtful, client-centered investment planning. He believes that financial strategies should be as unique as the individuals they serve.

Beyond his professional achievements, Dave is a passionate advocate for his community. He actively serves with Rotary International and is a member of the Shiawassee Regional Chamber of Commerce. He has held leadership roles with the Shiawassee United Way, Boy Scouts of America, and Friends of the Shiawassee River. He and his family are active members of the First Church of Christ in Owosso.
In his personal time, Dave enjoys golf, trap shooting, and above all, spending quality time with his wife, Lisa, and their four children and grandchildren. Looking ahead, he envisions a retirement filled with family, faith, and the joy of watching his children and grandchildren thrive.
