To me, being a financial advisor reminds me of being a kid growing up in a Coast Guard family. Our family moved from coast to coast with experiences alongside amazing people and friends from all over the United States. Through my job at Edward Jones, I get to work and have friendships with some of the most amazing clients with such different and special journeys of their own.
I build personalized financial strategies for our clients designed to achieve their unique goals. We do this by creating a client’s blueprint for their financial strategies and then monitor their strategies through our established processes that I like to refer to as goal radars. Through this process, we maintain open communication with our clients to ensure that their strategies remain appropriate for their ever-changing lives. I serve clients with a range of needs, but I am most passionate about guiding clients to and through retirement or achieving a "work optional" lifestyle.
My past experiences have afforded me opportunities to serve as a United States Army Officer and medical device consultant, as well as in the insurance industry. I joined Edward Jones in 2011 and quickly realized that I had found my true professional calling, helping others work towards and achieving their personal dreams and goals. I also volunteer in leadership roles as a field trainer and mentor at Edward Jones.
In the community, I am an active member and past president of both the Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce and Rotary Club. I am a member of 1st Baptist Prattville. In my free time, I enjoy camping, hunting, fishing and traveling. My wife, Kim, and I have two boys: one soon to be an accountant and the other who is in the Air Guard and studying in the Auburn flight program.
