About

In this role, he is responsible for overseeing investment strategies and portfolio construction, utilizing his deep expertise in quantitative analysis and risk management derived from decades of experience.

In addition to his portfolio management responsibilities, he is actively involved in nonprofit financial stewardship, serving on the Mission Endowment Committee of the Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd since 2020.

Ulmanis holds an MBA in Finance and Technical Management from the USC Marshall School of Business, an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering from UCLA, and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. This combination of technical and financial training underpins his data-driven investment approach and positions him as a well-rounded leader in institutional asset management.
