About Mitch

 
 

Personal: Mitch spent much of his childhood up through high school on the baseball mound as a left-handed pitcher. His hard work and dedication enabled him to continue his love of baseball at the collegiate level while attending Concordia University in Portland.  It was there he met his now wife, Mikal.

Mitch and Mikal were married on New Year’s Eve 2017.  They welcomed their daughter, Marley, in July of 2020. As a family they love to travel and spend time on their boat when the sun comes out for a few months each Summer. Outside of family time you will find Mitch on the golf course or on the mountain looking for fresh powder.

Professional: Mitch grew up within his family business in Bellingham, Washington – Ludtke Pacific Trucking. Established in 1946, multiple generations of Ludtke’s have overseen the growth from a single logging truck to the international carrier it is today. Much of his childhood and teen years were spent at the company. The lessons of hard work, integrity, and perseverance imparted upon him in those hallways are core in his values today.

After college, Mitch spent some time exploring his creative side as a film producer at a local advertising agency, where he quickly realized that his true passion was in the field of finance and helping others. Mitch then spent over 5 years working his way up the corporate ladder in various finance roles at Fidelity Investments, all the while honing his investing, planning, and consulting skills. He excels at building close relationships with the individuals and families he works with and derives great satisfaction in helping them to exceed their financial goals and dreams.
