Ryan Michael Lowery is the Founder and a Managing Member of LaSalle Capital Partners and a General Partner and Trader at Cadenza Capital.

Ryan was an entrepreneur from an early age, starting his first business when he was only seven. By age eleven, he’d started his first profitable business: buying candy in bulk and then selling it to other kids at his junior high school during the school day. A business model he later used in high school as well.

By his sixteenth birthday, Ryan had become interested in investing as well and begun trading equities when he was eighteen. That year, Ryan also co-founded a computer services company. Five years later, that company merged with a company started by Ryan and his father. The combined companies became Lowery Media. Under Lowery Media’s Internet division, Watervale Interactive, Ryan and his father launched two early social media sites and a printable coupon site.

Ryan is a politics and news junkie, a book collector, avid reader, and a writer. He has completed a novel, several short stories, and numerous articles, essays, and blog entries. Ryan is also a life-long musician as well. He has composed, produced, and written several songs. He plays the guitar and drums, but his favorite instrument is the bass guitar. He has played in bands, co-produced records, composed orchestral pieces, accompanied others on stage, and performed on albums.
