When I was 12, I attended an investment club meeting with my dad and had my first experience of investing and managing money. It was that first taste of the finance world that sparked my interest, helped guide me in my education and has become my life’s passion.

My job as a financial advisor with Edward Jones is to help you manage your entire financial picture. I work with individuals and business owners who are looking to organize, build, protect and transfer wealth.

I grew up in rural North Dakota in the farming community, Gackle. My two brothers still farm west of Gackle. It is this connection to agriculture that has been instrumental in developing one of my areas of focus, working with farm families, specifically in the areas of tax-saving strategies and transition planning.

My wife, Jessi, and I are raising our three children: Riley, Max and Josie. Being a father for the past 18 years has given me a new perspective in how I think about things, like saving for college, protecting the financial future of the ones we care about most and developing strategies to achieve our financial goals and live life to its fullest. For me, this includes being an active member in our church, coaching children's activities, spending time at the lake with family and attending as many sporting events as possible at my alma mater, North Dakota State University.
