Axenfeld had been serving as the company’s controller — overseeing financial reporting and accounting — and was appointed to its board of directors this summer.
“Dalton brings tremendous skills to our finance team and will play a key role in shaping our vision, strategy, and leadership instrumental to achieving our aggressive growth plans,” Gregg Kidd, CEO of Pinnacle, said in a news release. “He has clearly proven himself in his previous role of Controller.”
A Syracuse native, Axenfeld has more than five years of public accounting experience. He is a CPA in the state of New York, a member of the New York State Society of CPAs, and member of the American Institute of CPAs. After graduating from Le Moyne College, where he received a bachelor’s degree in accounting, Axenfeld earned an MBA from Ithaca College.
Founded in 1995, Pinnacle Holding Company owns Pinnacle Investments (brokerage and financial planning), Pinnacle Capital Management (asset management), Pinnacle Employee Services (payroll, benefits, outsourcing HR), Pinnacle Solutions (insurance), and Confidential Planning (403(b) provider for school districts).
With offices throughout New York state as well as in Florida, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania, the company says it has averaged double-digit revenue growth since its founding.
