Mike Topley is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional and co-founder of Lansing Street Advisors, which he launched alongside Matt Topley in 2020. As President and Partner, Mike leads the firm's client advisory practice and brings a well-rounded perspective to every family relationship.

Mike's career spans nearly every corner of the investment industry. Early on, he supported stockbrokers in Philadelphia and institutional traders on Wall Street, gaining a ground-level view of how markets function. At The Vanguard Group, he worked directly with individual investors, coaching them through market cycles and helping them make informed, disciplined decisions. He later joined SEI as an internal wholesaler, partnering with dozens of financial advisors across the country to help them serve their clients and grow their practices.

Before co-founding Lansing Street Advisors, Mike spent four years at a Delaware-based advisory group as the firm's Investment Specialist, advising both individuals and retirement plan sponsors on portfolio construction and long-term planning.

That breadth of experience — retail brokerage, institutional trading, fund management, advisor support, and direct client advisory — is what allows Mike to anticipate client needs and deliver the thoughtful, personalized guidance that defines the Lansing Street Advisors family office experience.
