At Edward Jones, we focus on serving the financial needs of individual investors of all ages and financial means. We have built our business by treating our clients as we would want to be treated, a simple idea that still makes sense in today's complex marketplace.
My primary goal is to help our clients develop an investment strategy geared toward their unique long-term goals, using a solutions-based approach and staying focused on ensuring those goals are met.
I attended Saint Louis University and graduated in 1989 with a Bachelor of Science degree in business administration, with a major in finance. In addition, I earned the AAMS® professional designation in 2002 from the College for Financial Planning.
I joined Edward Jones as a financial advisor in 1992, opening the firm's first office in Woodridge, IL, then relocating in 1993 to my current location in O'Fallon, IL. I became a limited partner with the firm in 1997. Over the years my business has grown significantly, and I invited additional financial advisors to join me in best serving our clients.
Originally from St. Louis, MO, I have lived in O'Fallon for 28 years. My wife, Loretta, and I have three children: Michala, Katherine and Dimitry. In my spare time, I enjoy travel, reading and cooking. Additionally, I am active in the community with the O'Fallon Kiwanis Club and serve as the parish organist at St. Nicholas Catholic Church.
My branch office administrator, Kim Rutherford, and I provide highly personalized service. All aspects of our business are aligned to help us better understand and meet our clients' unique goals and needs. We believe developing strong relationships are key to our success in helping the serious long-term investor. It is a privilege and honor to work with each and every client.
