As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time in understanding what you're working toward before you invest your money. Working closely with you and your CPA, attorney and other professionals, I can help determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family. I can also help with your retirement savings strategy, so you have more options when you retire, regardless of what you decide to do.
I have over 20 years of experience as a financial advisor. I started my career with Edward Jones in 1997 and returned in 2014. I feel honored and privileged to return to Edward Jones.
Originally from eastern North Carolina, I earned my bachelor's degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
My family and I have made Greensboro our home since 1998. My wife, Edna, is a registered dietician with Cecilia Health and my daughter attends New Garden Friends School.
My branch team includes Jill Willard and Dwayne Guy. Jill is a senior branch office administrator who has been with the firm for 14 years. Dwayne is a branch office administrator with five years of industry experience. Together, we are dedicated to providing you with the highest level of service possible. Please don't hesitate to call Jill and Dwayne with any questions concerning your statement, dividends, stock certificates, transfers or your account in general.
Relationships are key, and in our view, meeting face to face builds a strong relationship. We meet when it's convenient for our clients because we recognize the challenging needs of their lives.
