Thank you for considering the Edward Jones branch located in Murphys, California!

My name is John Krutsinger, and I work alongside Cathy Carter (Branch Office Administrator) in an effort to provide exceptional service to our clients.

At our branch, we define exceptional service by answering the phones, avoiding sales targets, only accepting clients if we can add value and limit advertising to "word of mouth" referrals only.

My financial services career began in 2005 as a college intern at Edward Jones in 2005. Upon graduation, I began a career at Capital Research and Management Company based in Los Angeles, CA. In 2014, just after the birth of my son, our family chose to move to the Sierra Foothills in pursuit of a quieter life while serving the investment needs of our clients more intimately.

Cathy and I are passionate about focusing on serving a select group of clients and knowing their investment and retirement plan needs intimately. Furthermore, we often observe a lack of coordination among financial advisors, tax advisors and family attorneys. As such, we make it a priority to cultivate a relationship with your trusted professionals in an effort to provide a more coordinated service.

When I am not in the office, you can find the Krutsinger family out on the farm! We are busy raising dogs, chickens, sheep and bees. Additionally, we have planted a vineyard, olive and fruit tree orchard, and a small cut-flower garden. We couldn't feel more thankful to plant our roots both metaphorically and literally in the Sierra Foothills and I look forward to meeting you.
