Colchuck History: AboutIn 2011, Tim Jenkins stepped away from his CEO role at the management consulting firm he co-founded in 1995. Though he appreciated the break from the pressures of leading a national professional firm, Tim confronted a new challenge: how to allocate his newfound time and resources in ways that made a positive difference in people’s lives.
Tim explored several non-profit opportunities and quickly discovered he missed the excitement and efficiency of the marketplace. Having no interest in rejoining the corporate world, he shifted his attention to helping to grow businesses through advisory services and financial investment. Learning rapidly from more seasoned investment partners (as well as his own mistakes), Tim began to build a real estate portfolio. His work with real estate led to the development of an asset-backed loan portfolio.
As the breadth and complexity of Tim’s ventures increased, he formed Colchuck in 2015 as a market-facing entity encompassing a diversified set of investing vehicles. Today, Colchuck manages private equity and venture portfolios that sit alongside its real estate and credit holdings. Colchuck’s small team runs the set of portfolios as a multi-asset class fund.
Colchuck does not accept external capital and does not provide specific investment advice. Nonetheless, we are held accountable for our fund’s performance by God, who is the true owner of our capital. Tim likes to say that “Colchuck has no limited partners, but instead we work for a single, unlimited partner.”
