About me
I am committed to helping others achieve their goals financially and professionally. I was born and raised in the Piedmont Triad of North Carolina as the youngest of 3 kids, blessed to be raised in a home full of love and the bible. Growing up as the youngest of 3, my oldest sibling is my big sister who leads by example for me and my brother - a true trailblazer in her industry. My brother has always held me accountable and truly showed me what work ethic and a level head can do for you in life. Mom and Dad showed me what a fiery passion and love for something allow you to overcome in life. I was raised to understand the value of a dollar, what it took to earn it, and what it took to save it. I grew up surrounded by sports; wrestling, baseball, swimming, football and the greatest game on earth - lacrosse, these experiences being involved with teams who of course had one common goal - to win, but also shared the tenacity to grow close together, forming friendships and bonds that would last a lifetime. I am certain that my bringing up in this world has assisted in my compassion and care for helping others succeed and prosper in their own lives, whatever goals and dreams they may have.
I currently reside in Summerfield, North Carolina, with my fiancée and our two four legged animals (Bo - a lab/pit mix, and Cowboy - a ferocious feline that loves to share the warmth of a big blanket on Sunday evenings). We both are Appalachian State Alumni, our love for the beautiful mountains of NC is shared and our favorite memories of our time in Boone are purely of the million-dollar skyline views and the mountains changing color with the seasons.

How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
