Since 2003, I have been serving select families and businesses by helping them with their financial goals. As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time to understand what is important to you before helping you decide how to invest your money. I use an established process to help you build personalized strategies to achieve your goals. Then, we partner together over time to help keep you on track.

I work closely with you and your CPA/tax preparer, attorney and other professionals to determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family.

In 1984, I graduated with distinction and Dean's List honors from DeVry Institute of Technology in Columbus, Ohio, where I received a Bachelor of Science degree in computer science with a minor in business.

I have completed my AAMS® (Accredited Asset Management Specialist™) designation which is awarded by the College for Financial Planning 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.

I have and maintain a General Securities Representative (Series 7), Uniform Combined State Law (Series 66) and Uniform Securities Agent State Law (Series 63). I have and maintain a California Life Insurance License, as well as a California LTC Insurance License.

I am active in local community organizations including the Pollock Pines/Camino Chamber of Commerce and Rotary. In addition, I have served on the leadership team within the Edward Jones Sacramento Region, where I continue to hold several additional voluntary roles.

I am originally from Michigan and moved from Ohio to Southern California after graduating in 1984. I moved to Camino, CA, in 1999, where I currently reside with my wife, Susan. I am very proud of my two beautiful adult daughters, Stephanie and Kelly.
