I became a financial advisor because I enjoy helping people create and grow the wealth that they need to achieve their dreams. Its particularly rewarding to get to know families and serve as a trusted advisor to multiple generations. While I appreciate that technology allows me to stay connected, I place great value on face-to-face meetings because they provide the best way to understand each persons unique circumstances and goals. Im fortunate to work for Robert W. Baird & Co, an employee-owned and privately-held wealth management firm committed to providing the best financial advice and service to its clients since 1919. My clients have direct access to a highly-qualified team of estate planning professionals, Social Security consultants, equity and fixed income analysts, and other retirement planning specialists. Referrals from satisfied clients are the foundation of my business.
