Jan Hilfer

Jan Hilfer made his first stock purchase from his college dorm room at the age of 18 and has been investing ever since. Having an early goal to become a physician, he earned his Bachelor of Science in Pre-Medical Biology. Later changing that goal, he started his Master of Business Administration shortly after his undergraduate studies. During and after his MBA, he worked for a biotech and two medical device companies before deciding to transform investments from a passion into a career. At the age of 27 he became a licensed financial advisor with Edward Jones, a large multi-national investment firm. While growing his investment business at Edward Jones, Jan taught evening courses as an Adjunct Professor of both finance and mathematics at Bryant University. At the start of 2022, he was advising clients on nearly $50 million in assets. Continuously striving to do more for his clients, Jan left Edward Jones in July of the same year to launch Eisenhilfer Capital. Outside of investments, Jan’s passions are cycling, weightlifting, and golf. He lives in Rhode Island with his wife, Lori, and his dog, Frank.
