ABOUT US

WHO WE ARE

Lodestone Wealth Management, LLC. serves clients from all professional backgrounds. Our roots in the greater-Spokane area fittingly represent our diverse client base: retirees, professionals, business owners, state and local government employees, and employer-sponsored retirement plans such as 401(k), SIMPLE, and SEP IRAs.

We specialize in establishing and implementing financial plans for professionals considering a transition to retirement. Our cost-conscious, fee-sensitive approach also resonates with young households committed to systematically investing towards established financial goals.

OUR TEAM

DAN MURPHY

Partner | Lodestone Wealth Management

Since 1999, Dan Murphy has helped individuals, corporations, and foundations reach their retirement goals through a disciplined, evidence-based approach. A Spokane native and former Gonzaga University baseball player, Dan’s lifelong involvement in competitive sports fuels his team-oriented approach to wealth management, allowing him to authentically relate to his clients’ needs and drive for success.

Dan believes that time in the market is far more vital than trying to time the market. He focuses on building globally diversified portfolios tailored to each client’s specific risk tolerance. By utilizing low-cost investment products—including ETFs, Institutional Mutual Funds, and individual securities—he prioritizes minimizing internal portfolio costs to maximize long-term wealth retention.

For many clients, a comprehensive financial plan is the most critical tool in their arsenal. Dan utilizes advanced planning software to create a definitive roadmap to financial independence, ensuring clients can retire with the lifestyle they envision. “A well-structured plan doesn’t just track numbers; it secures the future you’ve worked for.”

By blending institutional-grade investment strategies with a local, personal touch, Dan remains committed to keeping his clients on the right path for the long haul.

ANDREW MCDIRMID

Partner | Lodestone Wealth Management
Andrew McDirmid combines the precision of a Certified Public Accountant with the strategic vision of an Investment Advisor to help clients reach financial independence. His passion lies in working with high-net-worth families to manage their financial legacies using a combination of low-cost Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), individual stocks, and mutual funds to structure evidence-based, globally diversified investment portfolios. At Lodestone Wealth Management, Andrew’s core objective is to provide exceptional service at an exceptional value.

Beyond asset management, Andrew provides a comprehensive roadmap for his clients, integrating Federal and State income tax strategy, estate planning, and retirement plan implementation. He assists clients with the complex process of structuring the sale or acquisition of businesses and reviews insurance coverage to ensure total protection. Above all, Andrew acts as a disciplined partner, helping clients make sound business decisions and avoid costly, ill-advised pitfalls.

A Spokane native and former All-American soccer player, Andrew brings a competitive, team-oriented work ethic to every relationship. He is a devoted family man, happily married to his wife, Jessie McDirmid; they are incredibly proud of their two daughters, who are now successful young adults. Andrew and Jessie enjoy the lake life of the Pacific Northwest and the ocean life of the Florida Keys, where Lodestone maintains a branch office. Whether on the field or in the boardroom, Andrew is committed to helping his community members secure the lifestyle they’ve worked so hard to build.
