Meet the Team
Jenny Logan
Owner, Certified Financial Planner®, Attorney
Hi! I'm Jenny Logan, Certified Financial Planner™, recovering attorney, rural living evangelist, aspiring homesteader, and owner of Chisholm Financial Planning & Investments.
For over 10 years I have worked with hundreds of clients to build and implement comprehensive financial plans personalized to their needs and goals.
I received my law degree from California Western School of Law and practiced as an estate planning, business transaction, and tax attorney. Additionally, I am a trained divorce mediator and have assisted mediation companies and clients with the financial complexities related to divorce. Because of this experience, much of my financial planning is from legal paradigm and shapes my guidance on many of the financial issues routinely faced by my clients.
After spending almost 15 years in San Diego, three of them in Coronado, I met my husband who was stationed in the Upstate New York region. I now run my business from a very small village on the shores of Lake Ontario in North Country New York. We are blessed to have landed in the most beautiful place surrounded by a wonderful community.
Andrew Logan
Managing Editor, Attorney
Andrew is an attorney and U.S. Army veteran. He attended Ole Miss for his undergraduate degree, dual-majoring in Latin American Studies and Spanish. He then spent 8 years in D.C. working on the senior staff for a U.S. Senator, where he honed his writing and editorial skills. Afterwards, he attended Washington and Lee University School of Law before entering the Army JAG Corps. Andrew now works as a District Attorney in our local region.
He spent his entire Army career at Fort Drum, New York—about as far away from Southern California as you can get—yet he somehow managed to convince Jenny to join him and trade the sun for the snow. When not enjoying the harsh winters North Country brings, Andrew can be found on his boat—Tennessee Time enjoying the scenery on Lake Ontario.
Now working as a civilian prosecutor for his day job, Andrew provides editorial support for Chisholm’s marketing and social media outputs.
