About Me

Before Joining Northwestern Mutual I was a collegiate baseball player at Ouachita Baptist. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Christian Studies and Business, then pursued a career in ranch management as well as positions in the oil field before I began my career with Northwestern Mutual. After joining the financial industry I found my passion working with families and helping businesses protect the work they built from the ground up.

On the weekends, I enjoy spending time with the love of my life, Lindsey. I believe in living a fulfilling life and working in this business has allowed me to lay the foundation to protect this type of lifestyle, whether that is traveling, scuba diving, skiing, or relaxing at home surrounded by my friends and family.

He was introduced to Northwestern Mutual in 2015 and has been growing his practice since then. Brent has excelled when it comes to working with businesses and families. His specialty lies with agriculture or oil & gas businesses.

He quickly became one of the top leaders in the office and he utilizes that energy in his role as Field Director with the Northwestern Mutual - Addison office. As a field director, Brent mentors' new advisors in the career and coaches them with the purpose of helping them grow both professionally and personally.

Lending a hand in my community.

As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:

Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)

ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.
