Some people think service ends when you hang up the uniform. For me, that was just the beginning.

My time in the military shaped who I am, but the desire to serve never left. These days, that service looks different. It looks like showing up for my community, supporting fellow veterans, and giving my time and energy where it can actually make a difference.

The next couple of months may bring some exciting opportunities. I am currently in line to take on a leadership role with the American Legion as Junior Vice Commander, and I am also being considered for a board position with a charitable organization that is very near and dear to my heart. The vote has not happened yet, so we will see how things shake out.

No matter what, I am grateful for the chance to continue serving alongside good people who care deeply about this community. More to come soon!!

I picked up a great lesson last night at a local bar in downtown DeKalb while my son was at a music lesson.

Josh was my bartender. Over-the-top bubbly personality that works perfectly in a client-facing role. When I walked in, he was finishing up with another customer, completely matching her energy. Lots of positivity, playful banter, “I love yous,” and “I can’t wait to see you again.”

After they wrapped up, I asked Josh if he told all his customers he loved them, because I’d appreciate that same energy.

Without missing a beat, he laughed and said, “I don’t know who that even is.”

That was the lesson.

Josh was authentic. He didn’t follow a script. He sized people up instantly and met them on their level. He matched her mildly ridiculous energy and rolled just as easily with my sarcastic comment.
It wasn’t forced. It wasn’t calculated. It was real.

Takeaway: Be yourself. Meet people where they are. And if that doesn’t work, be Josh.

How many of you believe you won’t have enough to retire?
Before you answer that, let me ask you something else.
How much do you actually need to retire?
Not a rule of thumb.
Not a generic percentage.
Not a number an AI or online calculator spits out.
You.
Your life. Your goals. Your version of retirement.
Financial planning doesn’t really make sense until you put a number to it. Once you do, the uncertainty gets replaced with clarity and a plan.
If you don’t know your number yet, that’s okay. That’s where the process starts.
Give me a call and let’s figure out your number today.

This past weekend my son turned 16. I remember who I was at that age, and it’s honestly wild to see how much better he already is than I was back then. I can’t wait to see the path he creates as the world opens up to him.

We have to share what we can, when we can. There are only a couple more years where I get to enjoy my “little guy,” but he’ll always be my son and someone I’ll be incredibly proud of. I’m not sure how we got here so fast, but I can’t believe how quickly the time has gone.

His goals are becoming more grown, and there’s a spark of curiosity in him that keeps pushing him forward. He’s kind, empathetic, and understanding. We learn from those around us, and he learned these things from the people we keep close and the messages we passed down.

It really does take a village.

Tax season is almost over, but there’s still a small window of opportunity.

You can still make a Roth IRA contribution for 2025 for a few more days, even if you haven’t done it yet. Once the deadline passes, that opportunity is gone for good.

If you’re wondering:

• Whether you’re eligible

• How much you can contribute

• Or if a Roth makes sense for you

Call me and let’s take a quick look before the door closes.
Time is short, but the impact can last decades.

Another great night in the books!!!

Every month our Edward Jones family comes together to give back, and it is a powerful reminder of why I love what I do. Serving others is the norm here, not the exception, and it shows in the dedication of our entire team.

Tonight we prepared another 22,896 meals, and there is no better way to spend a Friday night than making a difference with people who care.

Proud of this team and grateful for the impact we get to make together.

As we wait for the weather to finally turn the corner, there is still plenty we can do to make a difference in our communities. You do not need sunshine to give back. There are countless opportunities indoors to volunteer, lend a hand, or simply brighten someone’s day.

Spend an hour helping a local organization. Call someone you care about and let them know you are thinking of them. A small gesture might be exactly what someone needs right now.
Let’s all try to be a bit of positivity in someone else’s day. It goes further than you think.

Emergency funds are one of the most important financial tools you can have. Everyone needs one, yet the biggest questions are often the hardest to answer. Where do you keep it? How much should be in it? How long should it last?

The truth is there is no one size fits all rule. Your ideal emergency fund depends on your income, lifestyle, goals and risk tolerance. Some people feel secure with a few months of expenses saved. Others need more. Some prefer keeping funds in a high yield savings account. Others might benefit from a different option that balances access and growth.

That is where I come in. Even if you think you already have the best rate or the right setup, I am happy to take a look and help you explore what other options are out there. A strong emergency fund should give you confidence, not questions.

Service and a Culture I’m Proud to Be Part Of

One of the things I appreciate most about Edward Jones is the culture of genuine care, both for our clients and for our communities. That was on full display this week as our region came together for a volunteer event with Feed My Starving Children, my favorite charity and an organization whose impact is felt around the world.

Being surrounded by teammates who live out our values through service reminds me that Jones is the right pick for the right culture. The sense of purpose, teamwork, and willingness to help is something special.

Feed My Starving Children offers an incredible opportunity to make a real difference. In just a couple of hours, we packed meals that will directly support children and families who need it most. It is hands-on, immediate, and deeply rewarding. It brings people together for a purpose that matters.

I am grateful for this team, grateful for the culture at Edward Jones, and grateful for the chance to serve alongside people who care. Looking forward to the next time we come together to make a difference.

I’m proud to be a Veteran.

It’s a common sentiment among most Veterans I know. But when you ask people how they feel once they are out, the answer is often the same: alone.

You go from being part of the largest family in the world, brothers and sisters from every corner of the globe, all sitting at the same table, all equal, to a place where that connection suddenly disappears. And the support you need afterward is not always something you can measure or see.

If you are around my age and not involved with a Veteran group, ask yourself why not. There is more value in it than you might think.
When you are around other Veterans, the filter comes off. You can be the version of yourself who got things done without having to explain every step. You can tell the stories that civilians may not fully understand, but your fellow Veterans will immediately get them.

And when you walk out afterward, you feel lighter. It is almost therapeutic.
Our brothers and sisters should not feel alone.
Get involved. Find a passion. Help others along the way.
We are still a family. Do not lose that connection.
