My primary focus is to provide thoughtful, relevant advice to business professionals going through career changes, whether voluntary or unexpected. I'll help you implement a strategy for meeting current financial commitments without putting future financial goals at risk.
I want to learn about your priorities, and use our established process to implement a strategy to help keep you on track.
I strive to provide the following to each of my clients:
- Confidentiality
- A consistent, established process
- A personalized strategy based on your financial goals and comfort with risk
- Clear, complete explanations of investments and recommendations
- Clear, complete explanations of costs
- Regular review of your situation, goals, strategy and investments
- A rich, digital client experience when face-to-face interaction is not convenient
- Personalized attention and prompt answers to financial questions and concerns
- Availability to help your family and friends
I also think that it is important that you know a little more about me.
I joined Edward Jones in 2001, after a 21-year career as an IT manager with Verizon. I have particularly enjoyed serving in volunteer leadership roles to help coach other financial advisors at Edward Jones.
I earned a B.A. degree in economics from Indiana University, an MBA from Nova Southeastern University and a Master of Ministries from Bethel College. I am a CFP® and ADPA™ professional.
I am a volunteer with the Convention of States Project, working through state legislatures to improve the federal government.
I live in Auburn, IN, with my wife, Lisa, and three children who are adopted from China. We also have three adult children and six grandchildren.
I'm sure you will enjoy getting to know my senior branch office administrator, Linda, who has 10 years of experience and is dedicated to providing you with highly personalized service.
