Honored to be recognized in Forbes

I am honored to have been named to the Forbes Best-in-State Wealth Advisors list, 2019 - 2023, for the state of Kansas. It’s a comprehensive ranking of top-performing advisors from all 50 states and the District of Columbia, and I am honored to be included as I truly enjoy helping my clients achieve their financial goals. Thank you to my clients for your trust, and I look forward to continuing to work with you.

Community participation

Supporting my local and hometown communities are extremely important to me. I support the Warrensburg Schools Education Foundation and am on the board for the University of Central Missouri Alumni. Here in Lawrence, we support our local United Way, Just Food, as well as annual events like the Pet Supply Drive supporting the Lawrence Humane Society, Toys for Tots drive benefitting the Salvation Army, and we participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer's. I am proud to be a Leadership Lawrence Graduate of 2019, a program of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce.

Interests

I enjoy many outdoor activities and am passionate about giving to conservation efforts, such as Ducks Unlimited, RMEF, and NWTF. Travelling with my wife Angela, two sons Jack and Andrew, and dog Destin is my favorite way to spend my time. When I'm not outdoors or spending time with my family and friends, I also appreciate working on my never-ending home project list and yardwork.
