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. Working closely with you and your CPA, attorney and other professionals, I can help determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family. Your health, family and wealth are what most people value most. I have a very unique perspective that will be able to manage your most important goals.

I began my Edward Jones career in 2007 as a financial advisor in the Crystal City / Festus area. While I am located in Festus, I help families across the U.S. with their wealth using technology and good old-fashioned, face-to-face conversations. Prior to starting with Edward Jones, I worked in healthcare. I helped people understand their health and wellness. While my role is more financial oriented now, my passion for helping has not changed.

My education includes a bachelor's in biology, chemistry, nursing and a master's in business administration finance. I have the Series 7 and Series 66 registrations as well as life/health insurance license. I have also earned the AAMS® designation from the College for Financial Planning.

I live just outside of Festus with my beautiful wife, Jodie, and amazing kids, Cole and Mya. I married my high school sweetheart 22 years ago. We are a truly blessed family. We grew up in the Festus area where both Jodie and I graduated from Festus R6 Highschool. I was so blessed to be able to return to my home town and build a career in the place I love and with the people I love.

I spend a lot of time outside of Edward Jones working to better the community. I serve on the Jefferson County Park Board, Jefferson County Growth Association Board and Jefferson County Family YMCA board. I volunteer at St. Pius X where our kids attend school and organize a number or community events.

I believe the best progress can be achieved by direct one-on-one interaction.
