Meet Augusta Leaders who Make a Difference

Isaac Nuriani

Augusta Precious Metals CEO

After years of assisting American seniors with financial needs, Isaac Nuriani developed a personal mission: to empower the public with knowledge about potential retirement concerns caused by economic policies that favor big banks rather than individual retirement savers. He launched Augusta Precious Metals to give retirement savers the education and tools to diversify their savings through precious metals products. Mr. Nuriani’s vision of quality service includes a strict commitment to ethics and professionalism. He is a member of Ethics.net and the Industry Council for Tangible Assets (ICTA) and is known as an advocate for silver and gold IRAs to help retirement savers diversify their savings.

He earned an economics degree with honors from the University of California, Los Angeles, and now serves as a mentor and guide to industry professionals who share his deep dedication to American retirement stability.

Augusta Precious Metals Director of Education

During a three-decade financial services and economics career, Devlyn Steele has processed financial assets worth more than $2 billion. As Augusta’s director of education, Mr. Steele now leads an education team dedicated to enlightening fiscally conservative Americans about savings diversification through alternative assets. He accurately predicted the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent surge in gold and silver prices. In his pivotal role at Augusta, Devlyn reveals his insights about what’s happening behind the scenes in the economy and helps Americans diversify their savings to potentially offset economic concerns. His informative web conferences have attracted wealthy and successful customers, including hall of fame quarterback Joe Montana*, now Augusta’s paid ambassador. Mr. Steele is a member of the prestigious business analytics program at Harvard Business School.

Howard Smith

Augusta Precious Metals Chief Financial Officer

During more than 20 years in capital markets and banking, Augusta CFO Howard Smith has seen firsthand the volatility that economic and geopolitical upheaval can inflict on retirement savings.

Mr. Smith offers extensive experience in risk management through previous work with major banks and local/federal governments. He offers a risk management mindset to help Augusta achieve its corporate financial goals – ultimately helping customers understand and overcome possible risks affecting their own retirement.
