About
Our Primary Purpose
Loch Leven Investments was established to provide a more thoughtful, disciplined approach to portfolio strategy and long-term financial planning.
My background is rooted in technical market analysis and investment research, including prior experience as Director of Technical Research. Over time, that experience shaped how I view markets—not as something to predict, but as something to evaluate with structure, discipline, and perspective.
What I observed consistently was that many investors—particularly professionals and retirees—were not lacking access to financial products. What they often lacked was a clear, repeatable process for making decisions as market conditions change.
Loch Leven Investments was built to address that gap.
My approach is grounded in a research-oriented framework that emphasizes evaluating risk, understanding market conditions, and aligning portfolios with long-term objectives. Rather than relying solely on static allocations, portfolio strategy may include active management of stocks and ETFs, with adjustments made as market conditions and client circumstances evolve.
This approach is not about predicting markets. It is about maintaining discipline and alignment over time.
I work primarily with professionals, business owners, and retirees navigating increasingly complex financial decisions. As wealth grows and life circumstances evolve, I believe the need for structured decision-making and ongoing oversight becomes more important.
In addition to portfolio strategy, I provide guidance on retirement planning and income strategies designed to support long-term financial independence and lifestyle needs.
I hold the Chartered Market Technician® (CMT) designation and FINRA Series 86 & 87 Research Analyst registration, in addition to standard industry licenses including the SIE, Series 7, 63, and 65 with LPL Enterprise, as well as life and health insurance licenses. These credentials reflect a foundation in both technical market analysis and comprehensive financial guidance.
My philosophy is straightforward:
• Process over prediction
• Discipline over reaction
• Perspective over noise
Outside of my professional work, I am married with two daughters and value spending time with my family. I enjoy being on the boat on Lake Minnetonka and playing golf—time that reinforces the importance of balance, perspective, and long-term priorities.
My goal is to provide clarity and structure so clients can focus on their careers, families, and priorities—while maintaining confidence in their financial direction.
Knowledge is power.
It’s also the foundation for intelligent, well-considered decisions. When you have retirement in sight, sound decisions are vital in helping you pursue your goals and avoid costly mistakes that can impact your future. For many, understanding every aspect of personal finance can be daunting. From investments to retirement to insurance, the decisions can be overwhelming.
As financial professionals, we are committed to helping people just like you create solutions for their retirement assets. Once we understand your risk tolerance, time horizon, and goals, we'll work to develop a program that carefully balances investment strategies with preserving principal.
Today’s economic environment brings challenges. But along with challenges come opportunities and potential rewards. We work closely with our clients to evaluate those opportunities and reap those rewards.
