I am Chief Investment Officer at Herrick Lake Investments, my independent one-person firm emphasizing individual goal-focused solutions. I am also founder of The Income Compass, designed to help you create recurring $100,000+ income streams through investments and scalable one-person businesses.

As a former multibillion-dollar pension fund manager, I describe myself as a "recovering institutional investor" (to emphasize the important shift from large conflicted corporate structures to a self-directed mission-focused business). I bring a blend of professional expertise and a personal mission to empower others.

I hold a BS in Finance from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

I live in beautiful Naperville, IL where our crown jewel is the downtown riverwalk lined with coffee shops, restaurants and walking trails.
