In 1993, I graduated from Texas A&M University with a BBA in management with a focus on entrepreneurship. My career at Edward Jones began at a College Station, Texas, branch while at Texas A&M. I became a financial advisor in 1994 in Grapevine, Texas. I received my CFP® certification in 1998 and my AAMS™ designation in 2001.My husband, Brad, and I have two children, Brooklyn and Brenden. I am a native Texan, born and reared in Ennis, Texas. We are proud to have called Grapevine home since 1997. My husband and I are avid sports fans, and we are also very involved as lead volunteers in our church.I have held various volunteer roles within Edward Jones during my tenure, including serving as the region's women inclusion leader, responsible for supporting and mentoring women financial advisors and serving on the hiring team.My branch office administrator, Kelly Tate, joined the team in early 2014. She came to us with five years of banking experience. Patti Carpenter, my part-time branch office administrator, joined the team in September 2022. She had previously worked at a Dallas office.
