About Jonathan Pickens

With over two decades of experience in the mortgage industry and having witnessed firsthand the need for comprehensive and high-quality financial guidance, I made the pivotal decision to transition into the role of a Financial Advisor with Thrivent to make greater impact on the lives of both individuals and families, as well as my community. My mission is to deliver tailored financial solutions that seamlessly align with their unique goals and aspirations.


I live in beautiful Washington, MO with my wife Katie and our daughter, Madeline. We also have another daughter, Leah, who lives in Pennsylvania. I am a proud member of the Washington Rotary Club and Chamber of Commerce, and love to serve the community in various volunteer roles.


I'm proud to be a Thrivent financial professional. I provide personalized financial guidance to people at all stages of life. At Thrivent, we view money not as a goal, but as a tool — one that can afford you a life rich in meaning and gratitude. We believe humanity thrives when individuals make the most of all they've been given. I'm here to help you do just that.
