Driven by your goals and values, I'll draw on my industry expertise and the team I work with to help you map out a path to a more secure financial future.

Get To Know Me

I’m a financial advisor with a background that blends academic excellence, athletic achievement, and an attention to detail. Born in Appleton, Wisconsin, I graduated from Canisius University in Buffalo, New York in just three years, earning dual degrees in Economics and Communication Studies. My time at Canisius was marked by my participation in Division 1 Hockey and Lacrosse, experiences that not only shaped my leadership skills but also instilled in me a strong work ethic and resilience that I bring to my financial advisory practice today.


Outside of my professional life, I’m passionate about a variety of activities that enrich my personal life. I love hiking, traveling, trying new foods, and spending quality time with family and friends. I enjoy time trying to improve my golf game, and I also coach collegiate hockey, which reflects my commitment to mentoring and inspiring young professionals.


My blend of financial expertise, athletic experience, and detailed insight helps me deliver exceptional value to my clients, combining analytical rigor with a holistic approach to financial planning.


I view money not as a goal, but as a tool — one that can afford you a life rich in meaning and gratitude.
