I enjoy the journey of getting to know clients and their families. The resulting long-term relationships allow me to create a personal connection while empowering them with confidence to achieve their dreams and goals.
I love solving puzzles. For me, being a financial planner is a lot like solving puzzles. Each person has their own pieces to work with and their own vision of the final picture. Tax codes and other regulations are the rules of this game. I get to help them put those pieces together and celebrate the milestones as we work through the unknowns.
As a lifelong learner, I am probably most proud of obtaining my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional credential. It was a big sacrifice to obtain. The credential has allowed me to ultimately create a financial planning practice I am extremely proud of and sets me apart from most advisors in the industry.
Most people don’t know I have been in 7 weddings as an usher, groomsman, reader, best man (twice), man of honor, and officiant. All of them were an honor and a memory I will always treasure.
