My first experience with Edward Jones, and what initially drew me to a career here, was the culture and environment they created for their clients and their employees. I believe that the amount of personalized care and attention that is given to each client is unsurpassed in this industry.
As an Edward Jones financial advisor, it is my great joy and my deep responsibility to help you reach the financial goals you've always wanted.
Whether it's planning for retirement, enjoying retirement, paying for your children or grandchildren's education, preparing for the unexpected or saving money on taxes – whatever it is you dream about doing in life – I will work hard to fully understand your unique story. I can help create a personalized strategy that fits your needs. Then, we will partner together over the long term to help keep you on track to achieve your goals.
My branch office administrators, Mary Cox and Cindy Strickland, and I strive each day to provide the most ideal client experience that we can. We are so fortunate to be able to serve the Tallahassee community and are eager to help more people.
On a personal note, I am married to my high school sweetheart, Haley. We most recently bought our first home and have an 8-year-old Chocolate Lab named Stella. In our free time, we enjoy taking Stella on walks and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Tallahassee. When I am not spending time with Haley, I enjoy being outdoors. This gives me time to enjoy some of my favorite hobbies which consist of being in the woods, spending time on the water and enjoying a great round of golf with my friends.
At Edward Jones, we use an established process to help you build personalized strategies to reach your goals. It's a privilege to serve as a guide and an advocate with something so personal and meaningful as a person's finances. I invite you to experience the dedication and focus you deserve. It all begins with a conversation – let's get started.
