I joined Edward Jones in 1999 as a branch assistant while attending college. I became a full-time branch office administrator in 2000 while finishing my degree, soon rose to the role of senior branch administrator and then became a financial advisor in 2008. To better serve my clients, I earned the AAMS® professional designation in 2010.
Using an established process, I create custom financial strategies for my clients. I take the time to truly listen to my clients and understand their goals and values. I then review their current financial situations, build strategies and help them execute their plans. I maintain contact with my clients to re-evaluate their situations and keep them on track. In order to provide a comprehensive service, I regularly collaborate with CPAs, attorneys and other trusted professionals, always keeping client information confidential.
I proudly serve a wide variety of clients, from individual investors to multigenerational families to business owners. My clients appreciate the time that I take to educate them on strategies and investments, and they often express how well I can explain complex topics in a down-to-earth, understandable way. I love bringing comfort to my clients through thoughtful planning and treating them like family. I am thankful for all the exciting challenges, families I get to serve and lifelong friendships I have made.
Within Edward Jones, I have served in numerous leadership roles, including field trainer leader, women and diverse leader, and advisor coach to many financial advisors. Outside of my role with Edward Jones, I enjoy hiking, motorcycling, go kart racing, traveling, watching my son play sports and time with family.
