Jacksonville University trustee and alumnus Margaret “Mag” Black-Scott has expanded her Beverly Hills Wealth Management firm to Jacksonville, the Financial News & Daily Record reported on Tuesday, Oct. 23.
Since creating the California investment company in 2010 with former Jacksonville colleague Nancy Overton, Black-Scott also has opened offices in Sacramento and San Diego, Calif., and in Phoenix, Ariz. She told the Financial News & Daily Record that she returns to Jacksonville at least three times a year for JU Board of Trustees meetings.

In Jacksonville, she also was business editor of WJCT-TV and won the coveted “Eve” award as the community’s businesswoman of the year. Among her community roles in Jacksonville was serving as the Duval Research and Development Authority chairman.
