Our mission
My team and I do not pick what problems our clients need or want to solve, but rather ask the right questions to develop a strategic plan to provide clarity and peace of mind. I am committed to helping clients strategically plan around their taxes to be more efficient when it comes to retirement distributions, or any specific goals they may have; either short term or long term.

About me
I graduated from Ohio University in 2018 with a BA in finance (Go Bobcats!). After college, I spent five years regulating the banking system with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as a bank examiner. My role was to ensure banks experience healthy and compliant growth through the review of assets, management, liquidity, capital, risk, mortgage origination, and compliance. My mission is to utilize the strategies I learned from the banking industry to help my clients create a comprehensive, robust, and diversified financial plan.
Apart from serving my clients, much of my time is spent with my English Bulldog, Todd. Growing up in a small farm town in Ohio, I have a strong commitment to my family and enjoy spoiling my 5 nephews and 2 nieces. I also enjoy recreational team sports and music (fun fact, I was a member of a men's acapella group in college).
Through various adversities I've faced in my life, I've developed a deep passion for connecting with others who have experienced similar challenges. It is my goal to create a safe environment for my clients to speak freely and build confidence in their financial stability.

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.

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.

Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.
