Working for Edward Jones has been my destiny since I was a young child. My father, Dennis, opened Ripon's first Edward Jones Office in 1983. Through his hard work and dedication to his clients, he was able to serve the community for 28 years. In 2007, I joined with him to help him retire and haven't looked back. Together, we have been blessed by the community that has allowed us to practice for over 40 years.

Born in Illinois, my family moved to Ripon in 1982 so my father could start our business. I graduated from Ripon High School and later went on to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in business and economics from the University of WI Stevens Point in 2001. I have also earned the AAMS™ professional designation from The College for Financial Planning.

As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it is important to invest my time in understanding what goals are that you're working toward, and what's most important you. I use an established process to build personalized strategies to help you achieve your goals. We will partner together throughout your life to help keep you on track.

Outside of Edward Jones, I have really enjoyed giving back to the Ripon community. I have served on several boards in the community, including Russell Manor and Ripon Rotary Club, and I am past president of the Ripon Area Chamber of Commerce. I also enjoy coaching football and baseball.

On a personal note, my wife, Jamie, and I reside in Ripon. We have three awesome boys, Nolan, Will and Lawson. They are all involved in baseball, football and basketball. We love sports, fishing and hunting, golf, boating, snowmobiling and anything else the great state of Wisconsin has to offer.

My branch office administrator, Fawn Peterson, has over 10 years of industry experience. We enjoy getting to know our clients on a personal level. Our team is dedicated to providing you with the highest level of service and is at the ready to help.
