I began my Edward Jones career in 2011. You could say that I joined the family business, as my father joined Edward Jones as a financial advisor when I was still in diapers. I grew up learning how important it was to listen to clients, take to heart what goals they have for their future and put a strategy in place to achieve them.As your Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time to understand what you are working toward before you invest your money. Working closely with you and your CPA, attorney and other professionals, I can help determine the most appropriate financial strategy for you and your family. I can also help with your retirement savings strategy so that you have more options when you retire, regardless of what you decide to do.Relationships are key, and, in my view, meeting face to face builds strong relationships. I meet when it's convenient for my clients because I recognize the challenging needs of their businesses, families and lives.I graduated from Nebraska Wesleyan University in 2010 with a bachelor's degree in communications. My husband, Jeff, is a Captain for Overland Park Fire Department. We have two young daughters named Rosie and June. They keep us so busy! On the weekends, you can find us chasing after our kids, exploring new parks and coffee shops. Each fall, we love cheering on the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium and think tailgating should be an Olympic sport.
