About Me

Hi, I'm John Henry, Ph.D — the founder of Story Makers Investment Advisors, bringing over two decades of experience working with Data Scientists, Engineers, and Actuaries. I have worked at companies such as MSIG, Convr, Maiden Re, and AIG in roles including Chief Data Scientist, Chief Analytics Officer, Predictive Modeler, and Actuary.

Aside from my work experience, I am also a passionate educator and have taught Mathematics and Statistics courses ranging from undergraduate to Ph.D levels at Oregon State University, North Carolina State University, and New York University. I enjoy empowering others to solve problems with mathematics and statistics.

I am held to the fiduciary standard of care — that means I am legally and ethically required to act in my clients’ best interest when providing personalized investment advice and recommendations. Moreover, as an advice-only and fee-only advisor, I can easily provide full transparency regarding pricing while avoiding conflicts of interest.

WHY

My personal journey has been one of hard work, education and overcoming obstacles. While growing up in Eugene, Oregon, my parents were regularly incarcerated or incapacitated. Despite these challenges, I became a first-generation college graduate.

Still, financial uncertainty and instability at home left me in the dark about personal finance for many years. By investing in myself and my education, I created the financial foundation to live the life I want, which now involves travel, exploring art and theater, and spending time with my family.

I want you to realize the same level of success that I have. That is why I have built Story Makers Investment Advisors. I want to continue to help my clients make their own success stories.

Dr. John Henry has been a pivotal figure in my career journey through the challenging job market. Introduced to me by a family friend, Dr. Henry's impact on my career has been nothing short of remarkable. With a vast network and a heart genuinely set on helping others, he didn't just connect me to opportunities – he opened doors I didn't even know existed. But it wasn't just about job placements. Dr. Henry took the time to understand me – my ambition, my skills, and my challenges. In a job market that often feels overwhelming, Dr. John Henry's support and genuine care have been a source of strength. Dr. Henry isn't just a mentor; he's a beacon of hope, leading the way through the uncertainties of career growth.

One of the best features of John Henry's service is the ease with which information is provided and how accessible it is made, whether asynchronous or not. All the tools that allow for individualized advice are used, and the advice is paced to meet the client's particular readiness. I really appreciate that, and look forward to our continued work together to better my financial health.
