1ď¸âŁ Whatâs a fun fact about you?
In my early 20s, I was a volunteer firefighter for five years. I earned my EMT certification and even got my CDL so I could drive the fire truck. And yes, I can proudly say I know how to parallel park a fire truck. đ
2ď¸âŁ How did you get started at Edward Jones?
Funny enough, I was actually a client before I became a financial advisor. My wife worked as a Branch Office Administrator at Edward Jones during her summers in college, at the office of my now-business partner, Jeff Kitchen. Through her experience there, I decided to open an account with Jeffâand that relationship eventually led me to consider Edward Jones as a career.
At the time, I was working in the auto industry and looking for a career change. I wanted to build a successful career while also having a better balance between work and family. Jeff introduced me to the opportunity to build my own business with Edward Jones, and I decided to take the leap.
Seven years later, Iâm grateful I did!
3ď¸âŁ Whatâs something you enjoy doing outside of work?
Spending time with my family is at the top of the listâespecially traveling and making memories together. I also enjoy playing pickleball and shooting sporting clays whenever I get the chance.
Whether itâs exploring somewhere new with my family, spending an evening on the pickleball courts, or getting out for a day of sporting clays, I enjoy making the most of my time outside of work. Iâm grateful for the journey so far and excited for whatâs ahead!
