Throughout my life, helping others has been an integral part of who I am. I chose a career in financial services because I believe I can make a difference in the lives of families in my community.

Prior to joining Edward Jones, I was a high school teacher and track and field coach. Outside of work, I enjoy distance running and training for triathlons. I am a member of the Rochester Running Club and I appreciate the opportunity to train for races throughout the year. My long-term running goals are to qualify for the Boston Marathon and to complete an Ironman.

My wife, Jenna, works at Mayo Clinic. We recently welcomed our first child, Lucy, into the world. We have a Golden Retriever named Penny that we enjoy taking for long walks in the Rochester parks. Jenna and I also enjoy exploring state parks (especially on the North Shore of Lake Superior). We are excited to share these special places with Lucy.

I became an Edward Jones financial advisor because I know that financial questions and concerns can cause tremendous stress on a family. I am passionate about providing solutions to help families and local business owners build a financial foundation to organize, grow, protect and transfer wealth. The comprehensive service that I provide to my clients may involve meeting with you and your CPA as well as your attorney.

Jessie Johnson is my Branch Office Administrator. Jessie's father was a financial advisor with Edward Jones for 25 years, so she understands the importance of building personal relationships, listening attentively to clients' needs and providing exceptional service. In her spare time, you can find her running on the Douglas Trail, camping at a state park or exploring a local brewery with her fiancée, Ryann, and their two dogs (Pashto and Willy).

Together, our goal is to provide exceptional service in a warm and caring environment. To that end, we welcome clients of all backgrounds, orientations and levels of investing experience. Jessie and I genuinely want to know about the unique challenges and opportunities facing every person walking through our door. You can count on us to listen and respond with compassion, and to offer the top-notch service and knowledge that will help you identify, understand and achieve your financial goals. Our door is always open to you!
