My exposure to the Edward Jones culture and environment began at an early age. With my father having been an Edward Jones financial advisor for over 40 years, I was able to witness the personalized care and attention that clients are given. I knew as a sophomore in high school that this was the career I wanted to pursue and have been a financial advisor for 19 years.I chose to become a financial advisor in Pendleton, Indiana, because of the "small town" community atmosphere and because I am able to connect regularly with many of my clients around town.I believe investments should be tailored to your individual needs and not based solely on a set of guidelines. I am able to offer investment solutions tailored to fit all of your financial goals, whether that be preparing for/living in retirement, paying for education or planning for the unexpected.On a personal note, my wife, Lindsay, and I reside in Pendleton with our children, Cole and Mackenzie, and our two golden retrievers. We enjoy spending time with family and watching our children play sports.My branch office administrator, Tammy Strand, and I are dedicated to providing our clients with the high level of care they deserve. We strive together to ensure that our clients feel comfortable and confident with the service they receive. At Edward Jones, we focus on you. The firm has thousands of people and advanced technology supporting our office so that we can help you and your family reach your long-term financial goals.
