I believe we all desire to set, meet and exceed goals. As an Edward Jones financial advisor, it’s important to understand what you’re working towards and to help you achieve those goals. It's also important to understand the risk level you're comfortable taking with your investments, so I can build a personalized strategy for you.
Whether you're planning for retirement, helping save for education expenses for friends or family, maximizing your cash or just trying to protect the financial future of the ones you care for the most, we'll work together to strategically do so. I'll monitor your progress to help ensure you stay on track and determine when adjustments need to be made. Throughout it all, we'll provide you top-notch client service. In my office, clients are family.
Although a native Texan, I graduated magna cum laude with honors from Arkansas State University and my hobbies include sports, outdoor excursions, reading and traveling. My wife hails from the Natural State, graduated from the University of Arkansas, and is a healthcare professional for the VA. We have one son, Lucas, and a Great Dane named Olive.
I'm a member of many area entities and clubs, including the North Little Rock and Sherwood Chambers of Commerce, Hi-Noon Toastmasters, and ASU Executive Den Alumni Group.
In addition to your financial goals, we welcome the opportunity to work with your attorney, accountant and other trusted professionals to deliver a comprehensive strategy that leverages everyone's expertise. We're on this journey together. If you have a vision for your future, we'll make a great team!
