Throughout my life, helping others has been an integral part of who I am. I chose a career in financial services because I believe I can make a difference in the lives of families in my community. As an Edward Jones financial advisor, my passion and purpose is using my many years of industry and life experiences to help individuals, families and business owners provide the means to achieve their financial goals by guiding them through the many pitfalls and challenges that they may face. I strive to develop thoughtful relationships built upon trust and fully understanding what's most important to you and your family. Throughout our partnership, we'll establish and regularly confirm your personalized financial foundation by creating specific financial goals based on what's important to you, assess how comfortable you are with taking risk and recommending tailored solutions, aligned with your comfort for risk, to help you achieve your goals. I bring a unique approach to helping business owners and their employees understand the importance of financial education and wellness through the consultation, design and implementation of employer sponsored retirement plans, including 401(k), 403(b), 457 Defined Contribution plans, traditional Defined Benefit, Cash Balance, Non-qualified, SEP and SIMPLE-IRA plans. When employees have a financial strategy to help meet their financial challenges ahead, it provides them the opportunity to be more focused and productive at work – which can be good news for a business's bottom line.Be it preparing for retirement, living in retirement, paying for education, preparing for the unexpected, estate considerations or planning an inheritance, my goal is to help you secure your financial future and protect the ones you love.My wife of 25 years and I are extremely proud of our three adult children. We are proud to be active members at St Anne's Church in Tomball, TX. In my free time I like to hunt, fish, golf and travel.
