Financial Advisor
.
Proudly serving clients in Spencer, Spirit Lake, Milford, Ocheyedan, Hartley, Lake Park, and surrounding areas. I'm a lifelong resident of Northwest Iowa and grew up on a family farm near Melvin. I still get the opportunity to help on the farm each spring and fall, which I enjoy. In 2010 I graduated from Buena Vista University in Storm Lake with a bachelor's degree in media studies. I then spent 12 years working full time in the radio industry. I met my wife in 2015, and we got married in 2018. We live in Spencer and have been blessed with two sons and a daughter: Lincoln, Griffen, and Madden. We attend First English Lutheran Church in Spencer. I joined Thrivent in the fall of 2022. I have been active in the Spencer Jaycees chapter since 2013 and the Spencer Youth Baseball and Softball Association since 2024.
I work with my clients by helping with:
- Life Insurance
- Disability Income Insurance
- Long Term Care Planning
- Retirement strategies
- Investment Strategies
- Estate Strategies
- College Planning
- Charitable Giving
Answering the questions:
- What can I do with an old 401k?
- How much life insurance do I need?
- When can I retire?
- Should I open a ROTH IRA?
- What strategies can I use to reduce taxes in retirement?
