Biography


I grew up in Manhattan, Kansas and attended Kansas State University where I studied Business Administration and Leadership Studies.  Upon graduation I moved to Kansas City and married my college sweetheart.    After gaining new perspectives in banking, I joined a wealth management firm where I spent six years in the investment world.  It was at this time that my wife and I went through Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University, a class that forever changed my perspective on personal finance and altered my life trajectory.  I went on to earn a Master of Science in Finance and the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®) certification. When completing my studies I remember thinking to myself, “Why isn’t anyone working with my generation?”.  I was routinely told that it could not be done because young people lacked the amount of investable assets needed to be desirable clients.  In other words, most financial advisors considered working with young people a waste of their time.  This narrative continued to weigh on my mind until I discovered XY Planning Network (XYPN), a network for financial planners catering to younger clients in an objective, fee-only capacity.  I have since become a member of XYPN to define my vision of helping younger generations develop a plan to succeed financially so that they may live a great life and do good in the world. I continue to call Kansas City home with my wife, our two young sons, and our two dogs. When I am not drawing up financial plans for clients, I enjoy coaching and watching my sons' sports teams, cheering on the K-State Wildcats, the Kansas City Royals, and the Kansas City Chiefs, and participating in my fantasy football leagues (This year is the year!).
