I strive to educate clients to realize they can pursue their financial goals and dreams through proper financial planning that is tailored to them, versus a one-size-fits-all approach.
There is a general consensus of what a financial advisor does for their clients –help manage a client’s money and potentially make it grow. As great as that sounds on the surface, it’s just too vague.
To stand out in a crowded field of financial advisors, I understand that money management has many factors, such as helping clients identify goals to tie their finances to, developing strategies to pursue these goals as much as possible, and understanding the risks to be wary of along the way. I find it important to educate and empower clients about their financial decisions, may it be regarding retirement, buying a home, investing in a 529 plan for their children’s future, or creating generational wealth, and put them back into the driver’s seat on their path toward financial success and stability.
I’ve spent most of my life in mid-Missouri, with the majority of that time spent living in Marshall, MO, and later moving to Columbia, MO. I attended Missouri Valley College for my undergrad studies where I earned a bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration and Accounting. I later went on to the University of Central Missouri to earn my Master of Business Administration degree, with a concentration on Finance.
When I’m away from the office, I dedicate much of my free time to hobbies that includes spending time with friends and family, my Australian Shepard Charlie, and fishing at my favorite ponds and lakes. I’m also an avid auto enthusiast, so I fill my time keeping up with the automotive world as well. Lastly, but certainly not least, I dedicate time for community involvement with the local Rotaract organization, volunteering my time to a number of different projects, and partnering with several local nonprofit organizations.
