Our Team
Hello, I’m Chris Rockey. I believe every dollar has a purpose beyond spreadsheets: it fuels generosity, supports families, and tells a story of stewardship. My team and I translate market jargon into plain language and treat you like the neighbor you are. If you want advice that respects both numbers and values, you’re in the right place.
About Chris Rockey, ChFC®
Chris M. Rockey, B.S. brings the calm, decisive focus he once applied in an emergency department to the equally high-stakes world of personal finance. A proud Butler University alumnus and former adjunct faculty member at Butler’s College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences, he has always thrived where clear thinking and genuine care intersect.
Today, as an adviser with CFD, Chris delivers comprehensive, values-driven planning for individuals, families, and small-business owners across the Midwest. He weaves professional strategies built with market changes in mind with tax-smart strategy, vigilant risk and insurance oversight, and retirement-to-estate planning designed to help support lasting legacies.
Above all, Chris pairs institutional-grade research and solutions with the personal attention of a neighbor who wants to see his community prosper. Helping people live generously today while preparing for tomorrow with purpose isn’t just his profession—it’s his calling.
The Team at Your Side
Our commitment to you is backed by two seasoned professionals. Chan’s 30-year partnership with firm founder Mick Owens anchors our processes, while Eva’s decade of client-service leadership makes every interaction feel effortless. Together, their know-how turns “one-stop shop” from promise to daily reality.
Mentored by Industry Pioneer, Mick Owens.
Chris Rockey was mentored by industry pioneer Mick L. Owens, CFP®. He entered financial services in 1969, founded Creative Financial Designs in 1982, and launched CFD Investments in 1990, laying the foundation for today’s CFD network. Guided by his mantra “You Gotta Have a Plan,” Mick shaped thousands of client strategies and, in 2008, hand-picked Chris to carry that vision forward. Chris still leans on Mick’s wisdom, pairing modern research with the same client-first, faith-aligned principles that built the firm’s reputation.
Institutional Strength, Local Care
By partnering with the CFD Companies, Chris pairs Wall Street-level research with hometown warmth. In-house analysts, tax pros, and insurance specialists coordinate every detail, while Biblically Responsible screens keep your investments aligned with conviction, not compromise.
