I have been in the financial services industry since 1982. I advise clients on a broad range of financial and retirement planning strategies for both individual and institutional investors. I focus on listening to each client because I believe everyone's needs and financial goals are unique.
Offering a wide range of investment alternatives and services, I am committed to providing my clients intelligent counsel based on thorough research, intellect, and hard work. I work with my clients to design investment strategies that can help meet the challenges posed by today's difficult and complicated investment markets.
Before joining Raymond James as a Senior Vice President of Investments, I worked at Smith Barney for 25 years, as First Vice President of Wealth Management and as a Senior Investment Management Consultant. Previous to Smith Barney, I held a position at Merrill Lynch as a financial advisor. Additionally, I am currently certified with the following licenses: Series 3 Commodity license, Series 5 Interest Rate Options, Series 7 General Securities license, Series 8 General Securities Supervisor license, Series 63 State Securities license and Series 65 Investment Advisor license.
I graduated from DePauw University in 1976 with a bachelor's degree in psychology and continued my education in graduate studies in business at Butler University in Indianapolis.
I am an avid outdoors man, hunter, fisherman and amateur archaeologist. My greatest pleasure, however, is spending time with my wife and family.
Investing involves risk and you may incur a profit or loss regardless of strategy selected. Alternative investments involve substantial risks that may be greater than those associated with traditional investments and are not suitable for all investors.
