Meet Your Farm Bureau Advisor

Hi, I'm James Soukup. I've been a Farm Bureau Wealth Management Advisor since 2020. As your CFP® professional, I can design a plan to increase your confidence about your overall financial well-being. My goal is to help you plan for the unexpected and protect your future. Getting to know you and the things that are most important to you will help us customize your insurance and financial plan to fit your specific needs.

I reside in the country near Linwood, KS with my wife Mikka and our three children; Elizabeth, Clara and Kai. We enjoy gardening, beekeeping, and exploring the outdoors. You can often find us tending our pasture or chasing fish.

Education & Experience

Originally from Nebraska, I earned my Bachelor's degree in business at the University of Nebraska Kearney. From there I earned my MBA at the University of Arkansas.

I started as a financial advisor in 2005 in Golden Valley, MN. In 2014 I successfully completed my coursework and exams to become a CFP® professional.

Community Organizations

I was one of the founding members MoKan Trout Unlimited. This organization works to protect and preserve coldwater fisheries and their watersheds. Every February MoKan Trout Unlimited hosts the Fly Fishing Film Tour in Overland Park, KS.
