As a financial advisor for over 10 years, and with a 20-year career in financial services, it's important to me to invest my time so I can understand what you're working toward before you invest your money.

Planning for your retirement and making sure you have a strategy to live through that retirement is my focus. At Edward Jones, we partner together to develop specific strategies for your financial goals, and we monitor your progress to help make sure you stay on track and determine if any adjustments need to be made along the way.

My passion is empowering people to take control of their finances. Following my experience with divorce many years ago, I learned the importance of having personal financial goals. I am dedicated to helping you plan for building financial security on your own.

I have deep roots in the State of Washington, going all the way back to when my great grandparents homesteaded in Kirkland and had an orchard with a small farm. Our family has a long tradition of outdoor gatherings and activities and, when I'm not at work, you will find me enjoying the beautiful Pacific Northwest year around, hiking, biking, traveling and gardening. My two children are grown and married, and I have three adorable grandchildren.

Your path to the future begins with a conversation and I look forward to talking with you to help you live your best financial life.
