Harrison Louden, is a Financial Representative with Ashford Advisors - Ridgeland, Mississippi, primarily serving the Gulf Coast.  He brings a service-driven mindset to his work, with a strong focus on helping individuals and families build financial confidence, make informed decisions, and experience meaningful progress over time.

Originally from Mobile, Alabama, Harrison earned his Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences (2016), Master’s in Sports Management (2017), and Master of Business Administration (2019) from the University of South Alabama. His academic background, combined with his natural ability to educate and connect with others, allows him to simplify complex financial concepts and guide clients with clarity and purpose.

Harrison began his professional career with New York Life in 2019, where he built and developed his practice while consistently performing at an Executive Council level or higher. In 2026, he transitioned to Ashford Advisors to further elevate his practice and expand the level of service he provides to his clients.

Before entering the financial services industry, Harrison worked at a Ford dealership while completing his MBA.

Today, he is motivated by the opportunity to serve, educate, and support clients in achieving long-term financial well-being.

A former collegiate football player at the U.S. Naval Academy and the University of South Alabama, Harrison was a member of the Hampshire Honor Society and a Campbell Trophy finalist. His athletic career, along with overcoming significant physical challenges, including 21 orthopedic surgeries has instilled in him a deep sense of resilience, discipline, and perspective that he brings into both his professional and personal life. He continues to stay involved in the sport by coaching and mentoring high school and college athletes.

He resides in Orange Beach, Alabama, with his wife, Nicole, and their three dogs; Roscoe, Charlie, and Max. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time on the water, traveling to college football games, and staying connected to the sport that continues to shape his life. A lifelong fan of football, he especially enjoys following teams and players he has personal connections with through coaching and mentorship.

Guided by the belief, “Shoot for the moon, because even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars,” Harrison approaches both life and his work with ambition, integrity, and a commitment to helping others strive for their very best.
