As an Edward Jones financial advisor since 2006, I believe it's important to invest my time to understand the level of risk you're comfortable accepting when investing so we can balance it with the steps necessary to reach your goals. Simply put, I tell my clients that my job is to help you make smart decisions with your investments.

I also will work with your other trusted advisors, including your CPA and attorney, to help you develop a comprehensive strategy that leverages everyone's expertise.

Whether you're planning for retirement, saving for college or just trying to protect the financial future of the ones you care for the most, we can work together to develop specific strategies to help you achieve your goals.

Born in Arkansas, raised in Texas – I could claim either, but my roots are in Oklahoma! Both of my parents, as well as my eldest son, graduated from The University of Oklahoma, and while I am proud to be a graduate of Baylor University, I really call myself an Okie – specifically a Sooner!

After graduating from Baylor in 1987, I was commissioned as an officer in the USAF and went on to become an EWO on B-52's and I'm proud to have served in Operation Desert Storm in 1991. If you are also a Veteran, thank you for your service!

My wife, Susan, and I have been married 30 years and have two adult sons, Robbie and Cameron. I'm a golfer, a Sooner Football fan and love to spend time cooking for my family. I'm a member of the Oklahoma City Exchange Club and I also volunteer my time to help end Child Abuse by serving on the Board of Parent Promise which is an outreach program here in Oklahoma.
