As a financial advisor, I believe it is important to invest time in understanding what is most important to you and the goals you are working toward before investing your money. In doing so, I can help determine the most appropriate financial strategies for you and your family.

I joined Edward Jones as a financial advisor in 2005 with my branch office in Pasco, WA and have since become a limited partner in the firm. However, my passion started with my interest as a kid in saving and investing which led me to purchase my first mutual fund in 7th grade.

In pursuit of my profession, I attended Seattle Pacific University graduating with a bachelor's degree in business administration and an emphasis in international business. In addition, I completed my Master of Science in personal financial planning from the College for Financial Planning and have obtained a number of certifications including my CFP® certification.

I am originally from the Tri-Cities and currently live in Pasco with my wife, Jamie, our sons, Ben and Jaxson, and our daughter, Gracie. Contributing to the community is important to me and below are some of the highlights of my community involvement:

- Washington State Board of Education, member
- Pasco School Board, past president
- Pasco Chamber of Commerce, past president
- Leadership Tri-Cities Class XV, graduate
- 2010 Community Leadership Award recipient, WASA (Washington
Association of School Administrators)
- Leadership WSSDA (Washington State School Directors Association), graduate
Rotary International, member since 2006 and Paul Harris Fellow Award recipient

I feel extremely fortunate to be a partner of a firm that has one focus, the financial goals of the serious, long-term individual investor. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with such amazing individuals, families and small business owners toward achieving their goals.
