It's important to invest time to understand what you're working toward before you invest your money. Working closely with you, 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.

After earning a BBA in finance from West Texas A&M University, I became a financial advisor in 1997 and joined Edward Jones in 2003. Since 2005, I have served the firm in many different roles as a member of the regional leadership team. In addition, I received the AAMS™ professional designation in 2006. The College for Financial Planning awards the AAMS™ designation to individuals who successfully complete a 12-module professional education program, pass a final exam, commit to its code of ethics and agree to pursue continuing education.
