I won a stock picking contest when I was in elementary school. I was fascinated by tracking stocks and watching them grow. I also learned about dividend reinvestment and the growth that occurs by owning investments over time and the value of compounding. I am a California native, born in Carmel and raised in San Diego. I joined Edward Jones in 1994 in Pacific Palisades, California. I became registered and licensed and became a limited partner in 1998. I attended the University of Southern California, where I earned a BS in business administration from the Marshall School of Business Entrepreneur Program.After working for Edward Jones for 30 years, I am privileged to work with generations of clients. I value personal relationships. I am a past vice president and past member of the board of directors of the Pacific Palisades Chamber of Commerce. I also served as a committee member and chairperson for the annual Chamber of Commerce Polo Tournament. I have earned the Accredited Asset Management Specialist™ designation from the College for Financial Planning®. The College for Financial Planning® awards the AAMS™ designation to individuals who successfully complete a 12-module professional education program, pass a final examination, commit to its code of ethics and agree to pursue continuing education. I have served at Edward Jones as a mentor, field trainer, hiring team member and compliance leader.I would like to earn your trust and a portion of your business. I will work with your CPA and attorney. I am here to be your guide during market increases and declines. I am honored to help serve my clients with tailored financial strategies.
