I've been a financial advisor at Edward Jones since 2003, helping people in Norridge and the Chicago area set personalized financial goals. I want to hear what's important to my clients and then work with them to help their reach their goals.
In my 20 years at Edward Jones, I have enjoyed getting to know my clients and helping them with their financial and investment needs.
Outside of Edward Jones, I am active in what is most important to me. I was a board member of the Seniors Assistance Center in Norridge from 2013 to 2018. From 2017 to 2018, I was a member of the Norwood Park Fire Protection District Pension Board. I also was a volunteer mentor to students at Ridgewood High School, and I have been a member of the Norridge-Harwood Heights Chamber of Commerce since 2004.
My wife, Jackie, and I live in Chicago where we are raising our two children: Olivia and Quinten. For that reason, I had served on the Queen of Angels School Board from 2018 to 2021.
I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1994. Before becoming a financial advisor, I worked as a writer and editor for numerous publications.
I earned the Accredited Asset Management Specialist™ (AAMS™) designation from the College for Financial Planning in 2006. I also have Series 7 and 66 securities registrations.
The College for Financial Planning awards the AAMS™ designation to individuals who successfully complete a 12-module professional education program, pass a final examination, commit to its code of ethics and agree to pursue continuing education.
