Bio

Philip Jayhawk Chan is the President & CEO of Lightspeed Investing, where he helps high-performing professionals build additional income streams through futures trading, financial education, and modern wealth-building strategies. With more than 15 years of market experience, Philip has worked extensively with physicians, engineers, entrepreneurs, and executives seeking greater financial flexibility beyond a single source of income.


Originally pursuing a path toward medicine, Philip’s academic journey at The University of Kansas combined science, analytics, and global studies. He completed studies in Neurobiology, Molecular Biosciences, East Asian Languages & Culture, along with a Master of Science in Applied Statistics, Analytics & Data Science. His multidisciplinary background continues to shape his analytical approach to markets, leadership, and financial strategy.


Under Philip’s leadership, Lightspeed Investing has evolved beyond traditional money management into a broader platform focused on trading education, systemized market strategies, wealth transfer concepts, luxury asset positioning, and premium travel advisory services. His philosophy centers on creating abundance through growth, opportunity, and financial education rather than competition over limited resources.


A former basketball athlete deeply influenced by championship team culture, Philip brings a mindset of discipline, preparation, teamwork, and long-term consistency into business and leadership. Today, he remains focused on expanding access to institutional-level market education and helping individuals participate in financial markets more confidently and effectively.
