An investment team that thinks like owners — because we are.
Justin Robinson is the Founder, Managing Partner, and Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Lucki Capital, where he serves as the Portfolio Manager and Chairman of the Board for the Fund. Mr. Robinson brings more than seven years of executive-level experience directing capital allocation, portfolio construction, and corporate strategy for private investment vehicles.
Prior to launching Lucki Capital's specialized UAE strategy, Mr. Robinson established a rigorous track record as a discretionary portfolio manager in the U.S. equities market. Employing a disciplined, bottom-up fundamental analysis framework and a high-conviction, concentrated investment mandate, his proprietary equity strategies delivered substantial outperformance and risk-adjusted alpha relative to broader market benchmarks through the 2023–2026 fiscal periods.
To seamlessly scale this fundamental equity expertise into international markets, Mr. Robinson spearheaded a comprehensive, cross-border due diligence initiative within the United Arab Emirates. Notably, his on-the-ground operational and structural evaluations throughout Abu Dhabi and Dubai spanned the periods preceding, during, and following the 2026 regional geopolitical crisis. This continuous, real-time presence allowed him to stress-test asset resilience and directly evaluate the liquidity profiles, balance sheets, and operational continuity of target financial institutions under peak macroeconomic strain.
This proprietary, localized intelligence, synthesized with his foundational equity underwriting model, serves as the core architecture of Lucki Capital's investment thesis. Under his leadership, the Fund merges institutional risk management with battle-tested regional insights to capture asymmetric growth and insulate investor capital across evolving global markets.
Brianne Futrell is a Partner, Chief Operating Officer (COO), and Board Member of Lucki Capital, where she directs fund operations, corporate governance, and business management for the firm's specialized United Arab Emirates (UAE) equity strategies. Currently based on-the-ground in Dubai, Ms. Futrell delivers critical market intelligence, regulatory navigation, and operational oversight tailored to the region's capital markets.
Ms. Futrell brings a distinguished background spanning institutional financial services and enterprise leadership. She spent six years at Vanguard, one of the world's largest asset management firms, where she held Series 7 and Series 63 licenses. In this capacity, she managed asset allocation strategies and tailored investment solutions for high-net-worth portfolios. Recognizing her analytical capabilities, Vanguard subsequently elevated her to its corporate innovation team, where she designed and optimized institutional business operations and systemic risk-management protocols.
Transitioning her institutional expertise into entrepreneurship, Ms. Futrell founded and scaled Liv Clean, a global property management and corporate services enterprise. Over an eight-year tenure as its chief executive, she developed an expert command of cross-border logistics, unit-level economics, and systemic scaling—operational disciplines she directly applies to Lucki Capital's compliance and back-office infrastructure.
Her strategic mandate for Lucki Capital is driven by the structural stability, pro-growth fiscal policies, and emerging market alpha offered by the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) and Dubai Financial Market (DFM). Ms. Futrell holds a Bachelor of Business Administration with a minor in Accounting, graduated Magna Cum Laude, and leverages her dual background in financial compliance and corporate operations to enforce rigorous institutional standards across the Fund's ecosystem.
