Sparks Capital Management (SCM) is dedicated to prudent capital management, emphasizing long-term thinking and risk-adjusted returns.

Founded by Daniel Sparks in early 2021, SCM is a U.S.-based advisory firm. Daniel brings a distinctive blend of perspectives to this work: the discipline of military service, the breadth that comes from writing thousands of financial articles, and a deep appreciation for skilled capital allocators and management teams that operate with high integrity. He lives in Colorado with his wife of 18 years and their three daughters. During his military career, he served in Germany, Kuwait, Afghanistan, and Israel, overseeing soldiers as a non-commissioned officer while deployed. He earned his Master of Business Administration from Colorado State University. Today, as an investment advisor representative and owner of SCM, he is committed to managing the assets of a small group of clients over the course of a lifetime.

SCM takes pride in being employee-owned. Because Daniel is both the advisor and the owner, his clients' results affect him directly — not just as a professional accountable for his work, but as an owner whose livelihood is tied to how well they do. This arguably creates strong alignment of interests and a focus on building lasting, durable wealth.
