Bud Shore brings decades of experience at the intersection of financial planning and accounting, helping clients align their wealth with what matters most. A pioneer in his field, Bud was among the first 1,200 professionals nationwide to earn the combined CPA and Personal Financial Specialist (PFS) designation. He founded Shoreline Wealth Advisors in 1998 with the vision of offering thoughtful, evidence-based guidance to individuals and families navigating life’s financial complexities. That vision now continues at Parkwoods Wealth Partners.

Bud’s approach integrates deep technical knowledge with a personal understanding of each client’s goals. His background as a Certified Public Accountant allows him to bring clarity to the full financial picture – coordinating tax strategies, investments, and planning decisions in a cohesive way.

A proud fourth-generation Hoosier and active community leader, Bud has served on the boards of Earlham College, Henry County Foundation, Citizen State Bank, and numerous local organizations. He was also a founding member of the Bright Sky Group, a catalyst in forming what became the BAM ALLIANCE, a national community of like-minded advisors and investors.

Bud earned his MBA and a bachelor’s degree in accounting and finance from Ball State University. He and his wife Linda have been married since 1977 and live in Central Indiana. Outside of work, he enjoys golf, reading, singing in the church choir with Linda, and spending time with their daughter and extended family.
