Personal
I grew up in Sioux Falls South Dakota my whole life. When I graduated from Washington High school I then attended the University of South Dakota studying both finance and accounting. I have two great parents and two younger brothers. I am currently engaged to my wonderful Fiancé Madi and love every minute I get with her. When I am not working I love to hunt, fish, ski, and occasionally ride my motorcycle. I also love to try new food with friends and spend time outdoors.
Professional
If we have had the opportunity to speak professionally you may have heard me say I have not gone a week without watching the stock market since I was 16 years old. That is true; ever since I was a child I have known that I want to work in finance. When I was 16 I found out what investments and the stock market was and have not stopped working with it since, and ever since high school I have known that I wanted to do financial advising.
I attended the University of South Dakota, obtaining degrees in finance and accounting. While there I was a member of their Financial Managers Association, PSE, and was the president of Coyote Capital Management. I have used all of that education and experience, along with everything learned since, to strive to be the best advisor possible to create the strongest financial plans and help clients achieve their goals, whatever they may be.

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.
