Note: Other offices and meeting locations present in Arizona near you. I have always been an all-Arizona kid. I grew up in Mesa and moved with my mother to Fountain Hills in 5th grade. After graduating from High School, I moved to Tempe until I graduated from ASU. From various small businesses in grade school, to winning the Edson Entrepreneurship award while attending ASU's W.P. Carrey School of Business, I have always had devotion to business. In 2011, I made the commitment to financial services. Financial services allows me to apply my passions for business in a manner that can have a profound impact on families. In 2016, I completed the twelve individual modules and examination to be considered an Accredited Asset Management Specialist (AAMS®) which focuses on investment management and theory. In 2020, I completed the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ examination which is considered by many to be the gold standard in financial planning education. In conjunction with our local team and national team, I strive to be a trusted advisor in helping clients build a comprehensive financial plan. As per public record, I have no disclosures on my u4. You can find me walking my dog Murphy, out to dinner with my wife Laura, riding a bike, wrenching on a car, or watching Arizona sports.
