Advisor profile


My approach

At Springs Wealth Group, we believe clients shouldn’t have to choose between a passion-fueled lifestyle and financial security. We use our expertise to help clients live a life they love by providing advice, managing investment strategies to grow wealth, and by taking action around their own values and communities. We know financial planning is not one-size-fits-all, so we focus on creating a truly personalized strategy to support each of our clients in living a truly 'wealthful' life.

For the past 22 years I have partnered with both individuals and businesses/organizations to help them align their financial strategies with both their individual lifestyles and long-term goals. In 2019, I joined my current business partner, Andy Inman, to focus Springs Wealth Group on working with individuals and businesses with a passion for the outdoors and the outdoor lifestyle.

Working with a select group of families, we use a consultative process to gain a detailed understanding of our clients' deepest values and goals. We then employ customized recommendations designed to address each client’s unique needs and goals beyond just investments.

When I'm not busy collaborating with clients to help them live their best life, I can likely be found in the mountains, camping, backpacking, skiing and paddle boarding. I consider myself an avid supporter of the outdoor lifestyle. I live in Colorado Springs with my wife Adrianna, our sons, Jack, Cole, and Dean and our two dogs, Roofus & Bodhi.
