As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it’s important to invest my time in understanding your goals and what money means to you. Working closely with you and your CPA, attorney and other professionals, I help determine the most appropriate strategy for you and your family. I can also help with your retirement savings strategy so you have more options when you retire, regardless of what you decide to do.
I began my career with Edward Jones in 2012 as a financial advisor in Eagle River, AK, following 22 years of active service with the U.S. Air Force, and five years with the Army National Guard throughout my college years at South Dakota State University. I've been fortunate to learn from great mentors, life experiences, training and formal education over the years. Now, as a financial advisor and businessman, I view my duties of financial education and community outreach as paramount. I firmly believe I have the best job in the world and consider myself blessed to be able to serve my clients and families, and to have the opportunity to live and work in Chugiak/Eagle River.
My family and I love Alaska and are very active in the schools and the local community through the Chugiak High School Mustang Band Boosters, Chugiak-Eagle River Community Band, Rotary Youth Exchange Program, CER Chamber of Commerce, Chugiak United Methodist Church, Salvation Army and many local financial education and literacy events throughout the year. Alaska is a big place with a small community heart and we couldn't imagine living anywhere else.
My branch office administrator, Kerrin, and I are dedicated to providing you with the highest level of service possible. Our focus is on you and your families, and our goal is to develop relationships and individualized strategies for each family. Please don't hesitate to call on either of us with questions concerning your statements, dividends, stock certificates, insurance or any other questions you may have.
