my idea of living the dream

What matters most to me is being able to make smart, confident financial choices that support the life I want for my family.

this is my dream job

Helping people make meaningful financial decisions—and seeing the impact those choices have on their lives and families—is incredibly rewarding to me. I’ve always loved building relationships and supporting people as they work toward their goals, whatever those may be. Getting to do that every day alongside some of the best colleagues and clients around truly makes this work a dream.

this is how i make it real

My ideal weekend includes a little bit of everything I love—time with my wife, Bailey, and daughters, Sylvia, Quinn, and Maren, catching up with friends and family, a round of golf with a cold drink in hand, and cheering on any Kansas City team—especially the Jayhawks and Chiefs!
