Lucas Blesener

I grew up in Elk River, Minnesota, the oldest of three boys in a family of educators. I originally planned to follow that path and earned an English education degree from the University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire. After being recognized by my college as an outstanding student leader, I was recruited by Edward Jones, who saw my leadership potential. Today, I have the privilege of using those same teaching principles to help clients navigate the financial world with clarity and confidence.

Since joining Edward Jones in 2003, I’ve spent more than two decades helping individuals and families make sense of their financial lives. I earned my AAMS® designation in 2007 and have guided clients through significant market events, including 9/11, the 2008-2009 financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. My goal is to simplify complex financial concepts and empower clients to make confident, informed decisions.

Currently, I serve as a regional leader, supporting 60 branch teams across the greater Twin Cities area (2019-present). I was named a limited partner with the firm in 2011 and a principal in 2021. In 2014, I was honored with the Edward Jones Spirit of Caring award—an acknowledgment by my peers of my dedication to service and community.
