Coral Davis

Coral is an Associate in the West Des Moines, Iowa office. She is often the first point of connection for clients and guests, playing an essential role in shaping a warm, welcoming experience. Coral goes far beyond a traditional front desk role, serving as a trusted resource for both clients and team members while helping ensure every interaction reflects the firm’s commitment to care and service.

Prior to joining Cerity Partners, Coral served as Client Service Coordinator at Gilbert & Cook. She has a natural ability to make others feel comfortable, heard, and valued — creating an environment where clients feel immediately at ease. Whether greeting clients, supporting day-to-day needs, or assisting the broader team, Coral approaches every interaction with thoughtfulness and intention.

Her background reflects a lifelong commitment to serving others. After earning her degree in Psychology from the University of Iowa, Coral spent 12 years at Orchard Place Child Guidance Center as an Admissions Coordinator, where she supported families during important and often sensitive moments. She later dedicated time to raising her two sons and continued her work with children as a special needs associate in a preschool setting — experiences that further shaped her compassionate, people-first approach.

Today, Coral brings that same level of care and empathy to her role at Cerity Partners, helping create a client experience that is not only professional and efficient, but genuinely personal.

Coral enjoys spending time with family and friends and is always happy to lend a helping hand when needed. In her free time, she enjoys cooking, gardening, and dancing — activities that reflect her vibrant and caring spirit.
