Life is about so much more than simply accumulating wealth. Every moment provides an opportunity to learn something new, share experiences with friends and loved ones, or instill values in the next generation. That is why I became a financial advisor at Edward Jones. We partner with our clients to help them identify and pursue what's most important to them.

At Edward Jones, our clients are at the center of everything we do. We take a deeply personal interest in our clients' lives and understand the importance of the trust they place in us. We focus our efforts to give them the confidence and time to follow their passions and spend their energy on what matters most to them.

I began my Edward Jones career as an intern in 2008 and knew then that I wanted to be a financial advisor. It is the perfect opportunity to work directly with clients and make a difference. I completed my bachelor's degree at Missouri State University with a major in finance/financial planning and my MBA at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. I also earned the CFP® designation from the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards Inc.

I have been serving clients at our office in the Chesterfield Valley for over 10 years. Sue Shepard, our branch administrator, has been working alongside me for over seven years.

My wife, Amy, and our three boys, Russell, Greyson and Myles, are the most important thing in the world to me. Growing as a family and raising our boys to be respectful and caring of others is my primary mission in life. I also enjoy being a triathlete, hiking, traveling and reading. I'm involved in the Assistance League of St. Louis, where my passion is the Steps to Success program in which we give 4,000 pairs of shoes to deserving kids in the St. Louis area each school year.

We are honored to serve you and look forward to the opportunity to speak with you. Please don't hesitate to pass along our information to your friends and loved ones if we can ever be of assistance to them.
