While preparing for my business career, I had the privilege of serving as an intern with an Edward Jones office in northern Indiana. That internship with Edward Jones validated my career path and I moved to St Louis, Missouri, to work in the Edward Jones home office. In 2014, I began my financial advisor career and relocated to Cincinnati, Ohio.

I was named to the 2025 Forbes Top Next-Gen Wealth Advisors Best-in-State in Ohio.*
I enjoy being part of the community and giving back. I am a board member of the Little Miami River Chamber Alliance, member of Clermont County Chamber, volunteer with local H.S. with their DECA programs, and volunteer with the Alzheimer's Association, Ducks Unlimited.
My wife, Hannah, and I have three sons, Theo, Frankie and Louie. We enjoy being outdoors, boating, hiking, snowboarding, doing home improvements, personal fitness, golf and participating in virtually anything competitive. Hannah and I were both collegiate athletes (volleyball and football).
