I have always been fascinated by the financial industry and helping people, so a career in wealth management is a perfect fit for me. I joined Addison Avenue in 2011 and service the investment needs of clients in the Roseville region. My areas of expertise include working with local employees of global hi-tech firms to create long-term plans for retirement, education planning, investment analysis, and risk management.
As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner, I am held to a fiduciary standard of care. Aside from retirement planning, I specialize in investment management, and rollover services for 401(k) plans. I can also help employees navigate their stock plans and strategize how to build net worth while minimizing taxes.1 I take a personalized investment approach in order to provide my clients with comprehensive financial advice that adheres to their goals. Though I am incredibly focused on all aspects of financial research and analysis, working with clients one-on-one is where I thrive.
I received a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of Redlands, and a Certificate in Financial Planning from San Diego State University.
I grew up in St. Helena and Incline Village, and currently reside in Newcastle with my wife, Lauren, our son, Benjamin and our yellow lab, Lucy. Outside the workplace, I enjoy CrossFit, outdoor activities, and spending time with family and fiends.
If you need advice or a second opinion, contact me. I look forward to meeting you.

Advisors have built their own practices and lead their teams; joined teams and are viewed as future leadership; or a combination of both.
