I began working for Edward Jones in 2004 in Olathe, Kan., serving clients in several states throughout the country. Since the beginning of my career, I have helped clients achieve their long-term financial goals through an established and proven process. I strive to help families prepare for retirement, pay for education, plan for their estate and inheritance, and prepare for the unexpected events in life. These things are important to my clients, and they are important to me.

My branch strives to provide an ideal client experience through clear and prompt communications, personal service and exceeding expectations to those we serve. I have enjoyed watching clients achieve their financial goals over the years, and these experiences are one of the many benefits I have received from partnering with my clients.

Prior to Edward Jones, I worked in the food and grain industry with ConAgra Foods as an international sales and marketing team member. This experience opened a world of experiences, which led me to see the opportunity Edward Jones could provide for my family.

Since starting my career at Edward Jones, I have been able to volunteer in many capacities around my community. I have served as president of the Clock-winders Optimist Club and have been involved for many years with the Boy Scouts of America. At church. I lead, mentor and serve young single adults. My wife and I have four children and four grand children, and hope to have more!

I graduated from Park University in Parkville, Mo., with a B.A. degree in marketing management and hold the following designation, registrations, and license: AAMS® from the College for Financial Planning; General Securities Representative (Series 7); State Registered Agent (Series 63); Uniform Combined State Law Examination (Series 66); and an insurance license.
