Meet Our Advisors.

Ed Bright is a fourth-generation Seattleite and Washington State University graduate with a degree in Accounting. After passing the CPA exam, he began his career at Arthur Andersen & Co., a Big-4 accounting firm. Recognizing a growing need for financial expertise, Ed founded Seattle Financial Staffing, a recruiting firm serving clients like Starbucks, Amazon, and Costco. After successfully expanding the business to multiple offices, he sold it in 2015 to focus on education and community impact. Today, Ed teaches entrepreneurship, accounting, and personal finance at Bellevue High School and continues to help individuals plan and invest in their financial futures through Stock Pro. Outside of work, Ed enjoys traveling, cheering on Seattle sports teams, and spending time with his son Jacob, who is studying Accounting and Business Analytics at Seattle University.

 

Tim Brockman manages the Stock Pro algorithms to make investing smarter. He combines finance, technology, and creativity to design better, more efficient ways to invest. With an MBA and a passion for machine learning and portfolio systems, Tim turns complex ideas into real-world results for clients. He also teaches Finance, Economics, and Business at Whatcom Community College and Bellingham Technical College, where students don’t just study business — they run it. When he’s not working with clients, teaching, or refining trading models, Tim’s likely on the golf course, mountain biking at Galbraith, skiing at Mt. Baker, or coaching youth soccer. He lives in Bellingham with his family and brings the same mindset to everything he does: stay curious, keep moving, and get better every day.
