As a child, I saved my allowance, like a lot of kids, to buy that exciting new toy. Then one day, my allowance hit a landmark of $100 in small bills and quarters. During my family's 35-minute drive to the large grocery store in the neighboring town, in a teaching moment, my dad asked if he could borrow the money for groceries. He said he would give me back $103 in one week in exchange for letting him use the money. It was that first investment lesson, as a child, that ignited my interest and passion in investing over 30 years ago.

As a financial advisor, it's my job to help you develop a strategic plan for your unique financial goals, then organize, build, protect, spend and eventually transfer that wealth to the next generation. I strive to see the future pitfalls that will impact their long-term wealth and implement strategies today in order to avoid those pitfalls. Predominantly, I help people and businesses put together all the diverse pieces of their financial picture.

My wife, Abby, and I are raising our two boys, Beau and Bradley, in the state we grew up in. We love to get outside with a fly rod or a bow and enjoy God's great outdoors with any free time we can manage. My family has changed my perspective on how I help clients plan and develop financial goals to specifically include the ones we love and passions we have into that plan.
