My path to Edward Jones appeared through a connection with my parents' financial advisor - I was working in finance in the pharmaceutical industry and my parents' advisor at Edward Jones thought I would be interested in the firm. He invited me to spend the day with him. After seeing his interactions with his clients and what he did for them, I knew Edward Jones would be a perfect fit for me. That was in 2010, and I've been serving the people in our community ever since.

In addition to my nearly 23 years of financial experience, I have also earned several professional designations in order to better serve my clients. I have a Bachelor of Science degree from Washington State University and an MBA from Pacific Lutheran University.

The best part of my career as a financial advisor is having the opportunity to be an important part of my clients' lives as they work toward achieving and enjoying their goals. Being able to share in the good times of my clients' journeys, and supporting them during the difficult times as well, is something I don't take for granted.

Helping me to serve my clients is my branch office administrator, Linda, who has worked for Edward Jones for four years and has over 28 years of experience in both commercial and corporate aircraft industry. Linda grew up in the Des Moines, Washington and currently resides in Covington. Linda has one daughter, a son-in-law and two granddaughters, which she spends as much time with as possible. She enjoys spending time with friends and her family.

I have lived in our community for over 20 years. My wife, Ginger, and I have been married for 31 years and we have three daughters living in the Seattle area. We enjoy travel, hiking and backpacking, and other outdoor activities.

Our branch team makes it a priority to provide our clients with great service and a friendly and inviting atmosphere. Linda and I truly listen and understand what's important to each and every one of our clients -- we are always there when they need us. We hope to be there for you as well – give our office a call to get started.
