Ed, Jr. is the President of Kohlhepp Investment Advisors, Ltd. Ed obtained his CFP® designation in May of 2006 and his additional credentials include the Series 6, 7, 63, and 65 securities licenses, as well as Life, Health and Variable Annuity licenses. He is also a member of the Financial Planning Association. Ed graduated from Fairfield University with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing. Ed also acquired his Masters in Business Administration from the Pennsylvania State University in May of 2000. Before joining the firm in July 2000, Ed worked for the Walt Disney Company and the Vanguard Group.

Ed resides in Buckingham Township with his wife, Jennifer. Their first child, Brett Mallik, was born in May 2006, and they welcomed their second child, Matthew Edward, in May 2008.

Ed Jr. also enjoys cycling, although two young boys don’t allow much time for that these days, and toured Holland by bike in 2004. After studying abroad in Norway in 1991, Ed discovered his love of the Scandinavians and has since been trying to convince his friends and family that he is a Viking. His Viking characteristics drive his goal of seeing all of the country’s National Parks and so far he has visited Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Zion, Acadia, Grand Canyon and Everglades. He also has a goal to watch a game in all of the hockey arenas in North America (but has quite a way to go with this one as his tally is only up to 8, although he’s making progress). If Ed Jr. ever decided to leave this industry, there is no doubt what he would do. He seems to have missed his calling as a meteorologist and can give a more accurate forecast than any news station around.
