My first job as a high school physics teacher allowed me to acquire skills that I would not have, had I gone right into the financial services industry out of college.  My clients appreciate that I have a heart of a teacher.  After beginning my career as a financial advisor in 2005, I have been afforded the chance to do many things I enjoy: teaching, serving others, studying investments, and making a difference in others lives.  These privileges in addition to working alongside a great team and serving great clients, makes my days at work hardly seem like work.

A great source of joy in my life is my family.  My wife Karen and I married in 2003.  I cannot think of a better teammate.  Our four kids (Connor, Ramon, Winston, and Eden) keep our lives full and meaningful.

Interests:

• Spending Time with Family

When I was in grade school, anytime I took a "what should my career be" test I received the same result, financial advisor. Although it took me a few years to re-find my calling, I am blessed to be working side by side with my clients and helping them succeed both financially and in life. My passion is helping simplify the world of finance for my clients, and helping them discover, and reach their financial dreams.

When I am not at work my favorite thing to do is spend time with my family. My wife Blair and I have been married for 8 years, and our lives have become a lot more fun since our son Jace was born last year. He is a sweet and fun loving little boy who always keeps us on our toes.

-Anything tech related
