Landon Dolanz, BBA
Investment Advisor
Landon Dolanz has a background in business operations, credit counselling and financial education. This experience prepared him to join Andrew in 2022 as an Investment Advisor with Assante Capital Management.
Landon’s expertise is in income allocation, with a focus on helping clients build savings through budgeting and responsible credit use. His credit counselling background has sharpened his active listening skills which enables him to help clients define their goals and create retirement plans.
One of Landon’s proudest achievements was paying off all of his student loans two years from the date he graduated — an outcome made possible by his commitment to budgeting. This inspired in him a passion for supporting younger clients working to manage their money more efficiently and achieve specific milestones.
Spending his personal time with friends and family, cooking, kayaking, camping, and refurbishing furniture are favourite pastimes. He also has a little Scottish Terrier named Norman whose lively personality adds plenty of joy to his downtime. Landon’s philosophy: smart budgeting creates freedom today and security for tomorrow.
