Learn About Peter Ahrens

Professional Background

Peter Ahrens started his career by founding and running a business early on, but his journey into financial planning began when he interned with AHC Advisors in St. Charles, IL. Later, at JMG Financial Group, Peter gained valuable experience in financial planning, tax planning, and tax preparation. This time was formative in his approach to building a plan for each client that is unique, thorough and workable. Peter served clients as a wealth advisor at Keystone Financial Services before finding his home at Mission Wealth in 2023.

With his Bachelors in Business Administration from Judson University and strong background in business and taxes, Peter obtained his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM in 2021. 

Personal Pursuits

Hailing from the picturesque outdoor playground of Fort Collins along the Colorado Front Range, Peter is an avid runner, hiker, and cyclist. He cherishes exploring with his wife, Rebekah, and four kids. As a Midwest transplant, Peter remains a devoted supporter of the Chicago Bears. Playing the guitar is another passion, and Peter enjoys strumming solo or jamming with friends whenever he gets the chance. Most weekends, you'll find him engrossed in a book on history or economics, savoring a good cup of coffee.

Community Impact

Peter volunteers with the community at his local church, Vineyard of the Rockies. He also spent two years working for The Father’s House International, an organization that cares for widows and orphans around the globe. During his time there, he helped manage the mission base in Henderson, Kentucky, while also working at bases in Israel, Palestine and Guatemala.

Spotlight on Andy Penso

Mission Wealth Success Story

A fee and value conscious investor was reluctant to adopt a one-size fits all approach. Mission Wealth used alternatives in the Private Credit and Private Real Estate sectors in order to build a custom, high-yielding portfolio. Additionally, a portion went into Middle Market Loans to small and mid-cap companies. Both strategies utilized short-term and floating-rate loans with competitive risk-adjusted yields. These provided a nice compliment to an individual bond ladder, traditional high yield, and floating rate fixed income.
