Live an intentional life with money.
My approach differs from your typical “suit-and-tie” financial advisor.
While I’m happy to dive deep into investment growth and portfolio design, it all only matters if it’s supporting your family and your goals.
Whether we work together on one project or on a long-term financial plan, each solution comes in three phases:
Clarify the goal.
We will always discuss what you want the end result to be to ensure we are selecting the right option for that goal.
Coach you on the solution.
With any solution I recommend, I make sure you understand why, cutting the jargon and relating it back to your goal and overall financial picture.
Implement together.
My job isn’t done with the recommendation. My team is designed to walk you through implementing any solution we find for you.

About us
Financial expertise without the cookie-cutter experience.
I graduated from Missouri State University with a bachelor’s degree in finance, and I now run my financial advising practice out of St. Louis, while serving clients throughout the U.S.
In 2021, I received my RICP®, Retirement Income Certified Professional®, designation from the American College to provide clients with enhanced retirement strategy services.
Outside of work, I spend my free time with my wife, Molly, and son, Noah. I am a board member and the secretary for the nonprofit Stop Alzheimer’s Now. I also enjoy golfing, playing ice hockey, traveling to new cities, and exploring the outdoors. I’m also no stranger to binging a good Netflix show.
