Professional
Cole began his career as a Financial Advisor with Northwestern Mutual in 2020. He earned his B.S. in Agricultural Studies from Iowa State University. Because of his passion for the agricultural community, Cole spends most of his time serving people who have pursued a career in an agricultural related field. Aside from this, he also spends a lot of time with people who are in blue collar roles like plumbers, electricians, and construction contractors.
His favorite part of what he does is connecting personally and professionally with individuals to provide a clear vision for your future. Cole’s focus is on carefully crafting financial strategies that keep his clients well positioned throughout their life and well into retirement. Most clients prefer to not work for the rest of their lives, so developing and executing a well thought out plan is critical.
Cole is from Nevada, Iowa where he lives with his wife, Christina and their kids, Lyla and Sam. Outside of work, Cole enjoys giving back to his community by volunteering with the Jaycees of Nevada. In his spare time, you can find Cole spending time with family, golfing, and attending Iowa State athletic events.
Cole also holds his Life, Health, and Long Term Care Insurance licenses, Investment license, as well as Series 6 and 63 FINRA registrations.
Lending a hand in my community.
As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.

How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
