Joshua Gorra founded Gorra Financial Group with a clear purpose: to help people make informed financial decisions that support the lives they want to lead. With more than two decades of experience, he brings a personal, practical approach to understanding each client’s priorities and building lasting relationships.
His philosophy centers on the “time value of life,” recognizing that financial decisions are ultimately about family, opportunity, and how people choose to spend their time. That perspective shapes both his work with clients and his leadership of GFG, where he recruits and mentors financial professionals, helping them develop their practices through the firm’s resources and support.
Originally from Lawrence, Massachusetts, and an alumnus of Central Catholic High School, Joshua has called Rhode Island home for 26 years. He graduated from Johnson & Wales University in 2004 with degrees in Entrepreneurship and Financial Service Management. He has qualified for the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) 18 times, including one Top of the Table qualification.
Giving back is an important part of Joshua’s life. He previously served on the board of House of Hope Community Development Corporation, including as treasurer, supporting its mission to prevent and end homelessness in Rhode Island. He has completed two century rides for Best Buddies International, supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and completed Tough Ruck in support of veterans. His commitment to the community also extends to GFG’s charitable efforts, including donations of backpacks and school supplies for students in Cranston Public Schools.
Joshua lives in Cranston with his wife, Vanessa, and their daughters, Sofia and Madeline. Outside the office, he enjoys spending time with his family, cycling, and staying active.
