My background consists of being in the Marines and a bachelor's degree from Buena Vista University in finance/business management. I was a lender at a bank for 10 years prior to working at Edward Jones. I was also a finance manager at a local dealership before that.

My community involvement consists of being current president of Rotary, past president of the Kiwanis Club, on the Tri-State Rodeo Committee and the YMCA board of directors.

In my free time, I love spending time with my kids. I like to travel, boat, fish, hunt and play sports. I love spending time outdoors doing new things and experiencing new things.

My clients inspire my work every day. I love helping them prepare financially for the future and helping them reach their goals. It is an extremely fulfilling journey and one I don't take for granted.
