I have been a Financial Advisor for over 10 years starting in 2013. I began in Honolulu, then managed the Edward Jones Ka'anapali branch in Lahaina, Maui for 2 years. I eventually moved to Tracy, CA where I directed the Downtown branch for 5 years. Since 2021 I have been a Senior Financial Advisor with Merrill Lynch Wealth Management. I have clients all over the country - concentrated in the San Francisco East Bay area, the Central Valley, and Hawaii. I am currently accepting new clients both remotely and in person.
What I believe sets me apart as a Financial Advisor:
-Integrity - My clients can trust me to be honest and always have their best interest at heart.
-Communication - I listen! I strive to understand your goals, then explain options and plans clearly.
-Collaboration - It's your money. I base my recommendations on your timeline, your comfort with risk, and your input.
Work and life experience:
-University enrollment counselor in Phoenix - 3 years
-Helped run a national wholesale business in Utah - 7 years
-Worked with hundreds of small businesses as an advertising consultant in Hawaii - 5 years
-I have been married for over 27 years to a brilliant woman and we have 3 incredible children.
Service:
-Full-time Missionary for the LDS church in Hawaii - 2 years
-Board of Directors for the Tracy Chamber of Commerce - 3 years
-LDS Bishop in Tracy, CA - 5 years
-I continue to volunteer within my community in various capacities.
My work and life experiences have taught me to look beyond current events and take a wholistic view of financial goals and strategies. I understand the joys and struggles of family life, the challenges of running a business, the pain of losing a loved one, and preparing for the unexpected. As I've helped people throughout my life, I have truly seen how a solid financial plan brings confidence and security. Lets discuss how I can help you strengthen your financial future.
