How I help . . .

Family is everything to me, and getting to help your family thrive is what I strive to do. Getting to know my client’s dreams and goals is at the heart of my work. I like to get to know them and what they value so that I can help coach them to reach their goals from a financial standpoint. Listening to my clients and helping teach them financial concepts is an important part of my process.

Whether it’s helping you plan your estate and gifts to help your family or helping a farmer manage his finances, I’m passionate about offering my expertise from decades of experience to all my clients. I believe having a close, personal relationship with my clients helps to create a strong working relationship. Being a trusted advisor to my clients is my favorite part of my position.

What does being a strategic ally mean to you?
My favorite kind of food is Mexican food, and my favorite restaurant is Chipotle since it’s fast, delicious and consistent. I like variety, so I listen to all kinds of music. I mostly read investment and financial planning related books.
