With 20 years experience 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. It's also important to understand the level of risk you're comfortable accepting when investing, so we can balance it with the steps necessary to reach your long-term goals.

Whether you're planning for retirement, saving for college for children or grandchildren, or just trying to protect the financial future of the ones you care for the most, we can work together to develop specific strategies to help you achieve your goals. We can also monitor your progress to help make sure you stay on track or determine if any adjustments need to be made. Throughout it all, our branch team is dedicated to providing you with top-notch client service.

In 2001, I began my Edward Jones career as a financial advisor in Naperville, IL. Prior to joining Edward Jones, I was a senior accountant at Molex, Inc., and an internal auditor with Deere & Co.

I graduated from Illinois State University with a bachelor's degree in accounting. I earned my CPA in 1996. I have my Series 7, Series 63 and Series 66 licenses. I earned my Accredited Asset Management Specialist, AAMS®, designation from the College for Financial Planning in 2006.

The College for Financial Planning awards the AAMS® designation 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.

Emily Moore, Senior Branch Office Administrator, has been my partner since 2008. Her dedication to our clients and our shared philosophy make us a great team.

My wife, children and I are lifelong residents of the area. We enjoy hiking as a family and watching our children perform in the high school marching band. I am a member of the Knights of Columbus.

Please give us a call to schedule an appointment. We'd love to work with you.
