As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time to understand what you're working toward before you invest your money. Working closely with you and your CPA, attorney and other professionals, I can help determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family. I can also help with your retirement savings strategy so you have more options when you retire, regardless of what you decide to do.

Originally from Northwest Iowa, I learned hard work and ethics growing up on our family farm. My mother worked as a stock broker for Piper Jaffery, which prompted my interest in the financial industry.

I started working in the financial industry in 2003. In 2009, I joined Edward Jones as a financial advisor, and became a limited partner in 2015. I attended the University of Iowa and graduated Mankato State University with a bachelor's degree in 1990 and then moved to the Platte County community.

My branch partner, Senior Branch Office Administrator, Philena Phillips, joined my branch in 2016. She is dedicated to providing you with the highest level of service possible. Together we are passionate about helping individuals and small businesses in our local communities by providing personalized service and unique strategies to help you reach your financial goals.

I have been active in business and civic affairs in Parkville for many years. I am currently a board member of the Main Street Parkville Association and an active member of the Parkville Chamber of Commerce.

In my time away from the office I enjoy spending time with Deanna and our five kids, often hunting and fishing with them and friends enjoying nature.

We are truly blessed with the nicest clients and we look forward to serving you and your family's needs in the future.
