When I finished graduate school and began my career as an engineer, I knew that I wouldn't be able to achieve my financial goals by work alone. I began learning about investing and finances, because I felt it was the best way to take control of my future, allowing me to choose how and when I might retire. I developed a deep passion for investing that led me to a career change and becoming a financial advisor with Edward Jones over 17 years ago. Now, I get to spend my time helping clients like you to take control of their futures.

In addition to educating others, I believe in always learning. That is why I hold the Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®)* and AAMS® professional designations.

Serving clients is just one of my passions. Along with my wife, who also happens to be an Edward Jones financial advisor, I am deeply dedicated to spending time with our three children. We spend much of our time together fishing for whatever is biting, biking and exploring. I also have a love for everything automotive and like to tinker with and drive cars.
