As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time in understanding what goals you're working toward before investing your money. I will work closely with you, your CPA, your attorney and other professionals. That way, I can help you determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family.

Growing up in Shelby, Ohio, my parents taught me the importance of a strong work ethic to help others succeed. In 1993, I began working with Edward Jones in Zanesville, Ohio, where I was able to build my business in the same office as my amazing wife, Carol. 2020 marks my 27th year as a financial advisor. My wife and I have made Zanesville our home since 1994. We have two children, Gavin and Erica. My son, Gavin, joined the practice in back in 2015, and Erica has recently become a practicing financial advisor in 2020.

I enjoy fishing and golf in my free time, especially when the weather is nice. My nickname around the golf course is "Jammer," because I never leave a putt short. During the colder months of the year, I spend most of my spare time hunting at my farm in Coshocton, Ohio. Deer and turkey hunting with my kids brings me the most enjoyment, but I also like to relax around the fire after a hard day's work.

I have been active in the community in the past as: president for the Perry County Chamber of Commerce, member of the Girl Scouts Finance Committee, board member for Habitat for Humanity, member of morning Rotary, member of the Elk's, member of West Muskingum Schools Academic Fund and a former West Muskingum golf coach.

I provide highly personalized service and want to take the time to get to know you and what is important to you. I want to make sure you feel understood, informed and in control. I would like to help provide the answers to your questions, so you can make financially smart decisions. Please contact me to discuss your own personal situation and options available to you.
