As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe in taking time to find out what goals are most important to you. We then use our established process to build a personalized strategy to help you obtain your goals. Our process is most effective with the serious, long-term investor. With services ranging from planning for retirement and saving for college to wealth transfer, we offer experienced, capable individualized service to help you with all of your needs.

I began my career with Edward Jones in 1999. Prior to working for Edward Jones, I spent 10 years in the insurance industry.

My educational background includes a bachelor's degree from Moravian College in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. I hold the AAMS® (Accredited Asset Management Specialist™)*, Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®)** and CRPC® (Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor) designations from the College for Financial Planning.

My wife of 24 years, Renee, and I live in Glenburn with our two dogs, Libby and Pandora. Our daughter, Emily, is a nursing student at Penn State. In my spare time, I enjoy motorcycle riding, hunting and attending sporting events.

My branch office administrator, Brenda, and I look forward to learning what's important to you and working with you to help you achieve it.
