THOMAS KELATI
Proud father, lifelong athlete, and investment enthusiast, I’m the product of a working-class family and was fortunate to realize a childhood dream that once felt out of reach. Basketball served as my platform, taking me from the collegiate level to a 14-year journey through the world’s top leagues. Competing at the highest levels taught me the real meaning of ambition, sacrifice, dedication, and building a legacy. Beyond the accolades, what I value most are the relationships built and lessons learned from competing on a global stage.
Today, I bring that same drive and perspective to finance, helping athletes make the most of their opportunities beyond the court. I partner with fellow professionals to strengthen financial literacy, build enduring wealth, and create post-career lives that are just as rewarding as their playing days. My mission is simple: to ensure an athlete’s legacy is measured not only by past achievements but by the prosperity, security, and opportunities they create for their families and future generations.
JORGE SÁNCHEZ
Understanding complexity starts with understanding people. Having grown up across Europe, the Middle East, and the U.S., I developed a global perspective that taught me to adapt to different cultures and ways of thinking. That background helps me understand the unique challenges pro athletes face when their lives and finances span multiple countries.
I bring over 14 years of experience in wealth strategy with pro athletes, backed by a European Investment Practitioner (EFPA) certification and degrees in Economics and Global Management. My time as a college basketball walk-on, while brief, gave me a deep appreciation for the discipline, resilience, and sacrifice athletes put into their craft. I bring that same mindset to my work today—both in mentoring clients and in looking after the operational side of our firm, where I focus on creating the structure and consistency that allow athletes to thrive during their careers and beyond.
CHRIS GATZKE
I’m a former basketball player, competitive bodybuilder, and lifelong advisor. Sports instilled in me discipline, resilience, and the drive to push for more — lessons that continue to shape my approach to both life and finance. Over the last 25 years, I’ve combined extensive experience in banking with advising High Net Worth Individuals & Families with a focus in portfolio management and real estate investments. I’m a Certified Financial Advisor and Loan Consultant.
Known for my straight-talking approach, I help clients cut through the noise to see the bigger picture — not just in their portfolios, but in how financial decisions shape their broader life choices. To me, wealth management has never been just about numbers; it’s about trust, clarity, and building a foundation that endures beyond short-term wins. Today, my passion is helping clients draw up blueprints that keep clients focused on what truly matters throughout every stage of their journey.
