Michael McKevitt, Financial Advisor | Partner

Mike began working with Eric in June 2008 - just in time for the "Great Recession"! Although it was a challenging time to join the profession, the lessons learned have shaped how he seeks to help clients. Mike became a partner in 2017, and he now leads Purposeful Wealth's portfolio management and financial planning strategies. 

In managing the portfolios, Mike oversees the design, trading, and rebalancing processes with an emphasis on maintaining alignment between each client’s investment allocation and their broader financial plan. His disciplined approach is rooted in a belief in market efficiency, diversification, and long-term participation as key drivers of success.

In addition to his investment responsibilities, Mike leads the firm’s financial planning efforts. He stays current on the latest research and planning strategies to ensure clients receive advice that reflects both technical precision and real-world practicality. Mike also works closely with the team to make sure every client meeting is thoroughly prepared and seamlessly implemented.

A graduate of Taylor University, Mike majored in business management and minored in finance. He received his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation in June 2011.
