My first experience with Edward Jones, and what initially drew me to a career here, was the culture and environment they created for their clients and their employees. I believe that the amount of personalized care and attention that is given to each client is unsurpassed in this industry. Edward Jones has given me all the tools and support to make a real difference in the lives of my clients. As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time in understanding what you're working toward before you invest your money. It's also important to understand the level of risk you're comfortable accepting when investing, so we can balance it with the steps necessary to help you reach your long-term goals. I'm inspired every single day by the people I'm so lucky to work with and meet. My branch office administrator, Rose Roberson, and I strive each day to provide the most ideal client experience that we can. We are so fortunate to be able to serve the Raleigh/Wake Forest Community, and are eager to help more people. On a personal note, my wife, Sue, and I reside in Wake Forest with our three children, Braeden, Olivia and Koen. We spend a majority of our time enjoying the great outdoors by taking neighborhood walks and working/playing in our yard. We also enjoy participating and volunteering ourselves in local community events. One way I enjoy giving back to my community is through coaching. I love working with not only my kids, but others as they grow and improve each and every day. Each day, I try to instill in my children certain values that I also try to bestow on my clients. Those values are to treat every person with kindness, be attentive to the needs of others and show people that you care about them.
