John helps his clients invest smarter, reduce taxes, and optimize growth and income to help them achieve their goals and live the life they want. As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER ™professional and a Chartered Financial Consultant®, he specializes in investment strategy, wealth accumulation, education planning, and retirement planning with high net worth families and business owners.
Many of John's clients came to him because they no longer wanted the hassle of managing their own portfolios or they were not sure that they were managing it as efficiently and effectively as they wanted. Others were nearing retirement, had a 401(k), and wanted a retirement plan. In addition to investment selection, John includes comprehensive strategies for his clients such as tax-advantaged strategies, risk management solutions such as insurance, and income strategies.
A St. Louis native, John received his Economics degree and MBA from Ole Miss, and his CFP® and ChFC® designations from The American College. Today, he puts his experience to work with a passion to improve the financial lives of those around him. That is also the main objective for co-founding One Bridge Wealth Management: to continuously improve the financial lives of clients and the services delivered to them.
John lives with his wife and two sons in St. Louis. Other than spending time with them, he enjoys spending time at his family farm, golfing, hunting, traveling, and anything outdoors.

We work with you and your family to build, manage, preserve, and transfer your wealth according to your goals. Together, we will go through a comprehensive process for managing your financial life and creating a long-term plan customized to your needs.
We start by examining the different areas of your financial life: Accumulation & Investment Selection, Retirement Planning, Estate Planning, Risk Management and Insurance, Education Planning, Charitable Giving Planning, Taxation, and Business Planning.
Then, we create a comprehensive plan: By exploring each area above in detail, we will determine which ones require our immediate attention, which ones are more long-term in nature, and which ones, if any, that simply do not apply. From our findings, we will assemble an implementation plan for your financial future.
From there, we support your financial goals: Working together with us helps simplify the complexities of your financial life by focusing on managing your wealth in a systematic way for the long term. As your trusted advisor, we'll leverage the broad industry experience of our team of financial experts, their deep product knowledge and our comprehensive range of customizable resources to help you build, manage, preserve, and transfer your wealth according to your goals.
