About Pam

Family

I  live  in Sheboygan,  Wisconsin,  and  have  been  married  to  Scott  for  31 years.   Scott is a Post Production Planning Supervisor, has been a basketball referee for over 30 years, a football referee for over 20 years, and is back in school again for a degree in Industrial Management.

This picture of our family is a current favorite, and shows from left to right:

Our son Nathan and his wife Lynae; Alyssa and our son Jake, the newlyweds; me and my husband Scott; and our youngest son Ben.

Nathan and Lynae are living in Arkansas -  Lynae is a Social Worker, and Nathan is finishing up his Masters in Marriage and Family Counseling.  Jake and Alyssa live in Arizona, where Jake is a Post-Construction Manager, and Alyssa is an Executive Assistant.  Ben is living at home, working full time and taking online college classes.

Beginning

I was born and raised in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, and attended Sheboygan Christian grade school, and Sheboygan County Christian High School.   I graduated from UW-Milwaukee with a BA in Business, specializing in Management Information Systems (which explains my continuing fascination with all things tech and web related).

New Beginning

I have been in the financial services industry for seven years, and am CEO of Pamela Otten LLC, Registered Investment Advisor. I really feel I have found my calling in financial services. Having made plenty of financial mistakes myself, and watching others do the same, I firmly believe people simply need to be educated in the truth about finances and the world of investing. I am one of those people who wishes I knew thirty years ago what I know now.

I am certified as a Qualified Kingdom Advisor.   Kingdom Advisors exists to engage, equip, and empower Christian financial professionals to communicate Biblical wisdom to their clients, apply professional principles in their practices, and live out their faith in their marketplace for Kingdom impact. It is exciting to fully integrate Biblical beliefs with my investment philosophy.

I also enjoy  teaching financial wellness workshops,  and am available  to speak  to your organization, company, or church group.

Other Fun Stuff

Women in Management - I  was the  Webmaster for the Sheboygan Women In Management chapter for many years, also Past President of the Wisconsin Executive Board, and currently serve as the Membership Chair for the Wisconsin Executive Board.

Music Director at Bethany Reformed Church - I direct a contemporary and a traditional choir, play the organ/piano, and coordinate music for all services.

Sheboygan County Money Smart Week - I have served on the Money Smart Week Planning Committee for four years, and teach Money Smart Week free financial classes.

Home Improvement - We live in an old house – need I say more .

Plants and Flowers - I get this from my dad’s farming genes – I love to dig in the dirt (just wish I had more time to do it)!
