Patrick Brown, MBA, is a former Division I football captain turned financial advisor with over 20 years of experience guiding professionals through the complexities of wealth management. As a seasoned wealth manager and Medicare specialist, Patrick has built his career helping attorneys, doctors, student-athletes, and families take control of their financial futures. He currently serves as a trusted advisor at Creative Planning, one of the nation's leading independent wealth management firms. Patrick's passion for financial literacy was born from personal experience. Raised in a household where money wasn't openly discussed, and inspired by early missteps and hard-won lessons, he committed himself to mastering financial strategy-not just for his own success, but to educate others facing similar gaps. Over the years, he has become a dynamic speaker, author, and advocate for financial literacy, particularly in underserved and high-performance communities. Through his nationwide platforms and speaking engagements, Patrick teaches attorneys how to confidently manage student loans, build multiple income streams, plan for retirement, and invest wisely-without sacrificing peace of mind or ethics. He believes lawyers, like athletes and physicians, face unique financial pressures that require tailored education, and his work blends real-world insight with actionable advice.

Patrick lives in Lawrence, Kansas with his wife Cassandra and their two daughters. When he's not writing or coaching others toward financial freedom, he enjoys basketball, movies, and mentoring the next generation of professionals. Financial Literacy for Attorneys is one of several books in his financial literacy series, created to give professionals the tools they never learned in school-but absolutely need to thrive.
