Tyler Porter
Partner · Financial Advisor
Tyler Porter's path to financial planning runs through entrepreneurship, academia, and public accounting — a combination that gives him a distinctly practical edge when working with business owners and high-achieving individuals.
After graduating from Wichita State University, Tyler founded and operated a successful financing company in Denver, Colorado. Following the sale of that business, he returned to school at Kansas State University, earning a degree in Accounting. He then spent four years with PricewaterhouseCoopers and KPMG before joining a regional firm in Wichita. Tyler joined Paulseen Financial Group in 2010.
His depth in corporate and personal finance — from business succession and exit planning to executive benefit design — means clients benefit from someone who has lived the business side of the equation, not just studied it. Tyler brings a proprietary, process-driven approach to helping individuals and business owners retain more of their working capital in a tax-efficient manner.
Tyler's areas of focus include estate planning, retirement strategies, life insurance, and investment planning — with particular depth in the business planning and tax efficiency work that defines his approach.

Our foundation
Ronald V. Paulseen CLU® ChFC®
FOUNDER EMERITUS
In 1972, a young man from Lindsborg, Kansas signed a contract with New York Life Insurance Company and set up a practice in Wichita. He didn't know it then, but he was building something that would last more than half a century.
"Numbers change, but the concepts always stay the same."
Ron Paulseen founded this practice on a simple conviction: that complex financial ideas, when explained clearly, could change the course of a family's future. That belief shaped everything — how he worked with clients, how he trained the people around him, and ultimately how he raised his children.
Over five decades, Ron built a record that few in his profession have matched. He maintained membership in New York Life's Chairman's Council every year from 1979 onward — an unbroken streak spanning more than 45 years. He qualified for the Million Dollar Round Table every year of his career, and held a place in the coveted Top of the Table from 1985 forward. In 1991, he was recognized as the #1 Top of the Table producer in all of Wichita.
Beyond the numbers, Ron and his wife Jenny — whom he met as a student at Bethany College — have given generously to the community and institutions they love. Their gifts to Bethany College, their decades of connection to Wichita Collegiate School, and their investment in the people around them speak to a life lived by the same principles he brought to every client relationship.
The practice he founded carries his name because it carries his values. What Aeramy, Tyler, and the team do every day is built on the foundation he laid.
