I was born and raised in Kingsport, TN and I have lived in East Tennessee all my life. I graduated from East Tennessee State University in 2001 with a degree in corporate finance and investments. In 2009, I earned a master's in business administration degree from Milligan College.

My professional career has had an underlying focus of helping and serving people through various clinical and non-clinical roles within healthcare as well as ministry. As a financial advisor at Edward Jones, I am able to compliment my innate desire to help people with my love for finance and the financial services industry. I find purpose and fulfillment in helping people!

People may have the same financial goals; however, each person has their own unique circumstance, ideals, feelings and attitude regarding those goals. This is my primary driver to spend time getting to know my clients and find out what is truly important to them in order to best help achieve their goals. The partnership between myself and my clients is a special relationship that makes me enjoy what I do and I consider it a blessing every day.

When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family (my wonderful wife, three teenage boys and two dogs), playing tennis, attempting to play golf, kayaking, reading and volunteering within my local church.

If I can be of service to you, your family or someone you know, please call my office to schedule some time to talk!
