My Profile

I have worked in the financial services industry since 1997, where I spent fourteen years primarily as an Institutional Equity Salesman focusing on European markets. I made the transition to Wealth Management in 2011 and spent six years with Merrill Lynch before joining Ameriprise Financial Services, LLC in 2017. I advise clients on a wide variety of strategies including Financial Planning, Estate, Retirement and Tax Planning, Life and Long-Term Care Insurance, Lending, and Cash Management. I also advise small and mid-sized businesses on their 401(k), Profit Sharing, and Defined Benefit Plans.
