I began my career as a financial advisor with Edward Jones shortly after earning my bachelor's degree from Southeast Missouri State in 2001. My wife and I live in Millstadt, Illinois, and have three wonderful children who keep our schedule jam-packed with sporting events and school functions. We try to find time to travel, and especially love time spent on our family farm.
For close to 20 years, I have been helping investors reach their long-term goals. My commitment to what is important to you is a habit, not a goal or a box to check. With our established process, my team and I work with you to determine what is important in your life and understand your tolerance for risk, so that together, we can build a personalized financial strategy. We also work closely with your CPA, attorney, and other professionals, to ensure you stay on track to meet your financial goals.
My Senior Branch Office Administrator, Ruth Fross, has close to 20 years of client service excellence with Edward Jones; her dedication to providing the ideal experience for each and every family we partner with personifies the Edward Jones standard and vision. Rounding out my branch team is Andrea Dobek, our Branch Administrator Trainee. Her customer service experience and skills in the fast-paced world of digital marketing and social media will ensure you always have a way to get in touch with us, no matter how technology may advance.
While Covid-19 may have changed how we do business, it has not changed the focus of our business: you. More than ever, we believe strong relationships serve as the solid foundation for the path that leads to your financial goals.
