Steve Foltz
President & Chief Investor Coach
Steve is the President and Chief Investor Coach of Mathies Financial Partners. He initially started his career in the investment services industry working for a large broker/dealer and life insurance company in Colorado Springs.

In an effort to find a company that fit his personal investment philosophy, he connected with Mathies Financial Partners.
He comes to Mathies Financial Partners with a 20-year history of being an independent business owner and manager. He holds his masters degree in counseling from Regent University and spent much of his life helping at-risk youth and their parents be successful in their communities. This passion for helping people translates well into his career with Mathies Financial Partners, where he helps families move towards financial peace of mind.
In his personal time, Steve enjoys dancing West Coast Swing, two-step and other country swing style dances. He also enjoys spending time in the Colorado Rockies hiking, biking and enjoying nature.
