Andrew J Kowalski

I was born and raised in Alpena and am a proud alumnus of Alpena High School and Alpena Community College. My previous work in supply chain management gave me the skills to thoroughly analyze financial situations and provide guidance to my employers. However, I feel fortunate and blessed that my career path led me to Edward Jones where I help individuals and businesses accomplish their goals in a community I deeply care about.

My greatest accomplishment has been starting and raising a family. Kristen and I have been married since 2008 and have two wonderful children, Sofia and Harry. Living in our hometown, our children have the benefit of growing up surrounded by family, just as we did.

I am passionate about my family, our community, hockey and spending time on the lake. As a financial advisor with Edward Jones, I am in a unique position to take my passion for our community, combined with my background in business, and use it to partner with others to accomplish meaningful, long-term financial goals. Whether you are preparing for retirement, saving for a child's college education or looking to secure your family's future by preparing for the unexpected, I can help.

I believe it’s important to invest my time to understand what you’re passionate about and working toward before you invest your money. It's also important to understand the level of risk you're comfortable accepting when investing so we can balance it with the steps necessary to reach your long-term goals.

While you will communicate mainly with myself or Laura, our Senior Branch Office Administrator, I can assure you, we're not alone. Thousands of people and advanced technology support our office, so we can help ensure you receive the most current and comprehensive guidance. In addition, we welcome the opportunity to work with your attorney, accountant and other trusted professionals to deliver a comprehensive strategy that leverages everyone's expertise.
