Jonathan English founded and now leads LUCA Wealth asPresident and Managing Director. He is a fiduciary investment advisor with more than 20 years of experience in financial planning, investment management, and retirement income planning. Jonathan serves energy-company retirees (including former employees of Exxon, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Shell, and other corporate retirement plan participants), high-income pre-retirees ages 55-70, and business owners navigating tax structure, income design, and retirement decisions.
Before founding LUCA Wealth Management, Jonathan advised clients through investment firms, banks, and wealth management platforms, gaining broad experience across market cycles, retirement transitions, and multi-generational planning. He holds the Series 65.
His planning philosophy is straightforward: retirement should be clear, confident, and tax-efficient. He builds integrated advisory plans that coordinate investment strategy, lifetime income planning, tax-efficient strategies (coordinated with affiliated CPAs), Roth conversion analysis, SocialSecurity timing, and risk and estate planning. His objective is to help families simplify complex financial decisions and make informed, tax-aware choices over time.
Jonathan works closely with a large team of affiliated CPA sat LUCA Financial (a separate entity in the LUCA family of companies). He also works with LUCA Financial’s tax advisors to help provide coordinated, year-round planning with detailed tax modeling. As he says, “Retirement confidence doesn’t come from products, it comes from a plan.”
Jonathan lives in Katy, Texas, with his wife, Joy, and their children, and is active in their church, local schools, and the Katy/WestHouston community.
