When I joined Thrivent, I knew I wanted to make an impact and take on the responsibility of helping my members make wise financial decisions so that they can live generously. I feel guiding with the heart of an educator is an important part of my role. Prior to joining Thrivent, I held management and leadership positions in retail, and was part of a team that held educational seminars to educate employees about their group benefits and retirement plan options available. I am actively involved in the Eagan Rotary club, the Rotary foundation, and the membership committee. I hold a bachelor’s degree from Minnesota State University-Mankato. I live in Eagan with my wife, Jessica, daughters Addison and Britta and energetic dog, Copper. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors hiking, biking, snowboarding and golfing.

Growing up in Wisconsin (yes, I’m a Cheese Head!), I was well aware of Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL). My parents and Grandparents all lived in the Appleton area. My Uncle was a Financial Representative for AAL and my Grandfather was the President of the Northern Wisconsin District of the American Lutheran Church. So, I’m not sure why it took me so long to finally find a home here at Thrivent. I joined the Stonebridge of Bloomington team in April 2019. Growing up with the Faith and Values of the Lutheran church makes Thrivent a perfect fit. It’s refreshing to be part of an organization that not only provides financial clarity, but also encourages focusing on what is meaningful to you, whether it is family, faith or giving back.

I currently call Mound home with my two adorable fur babies. My daughter Makenna is attending the University of Alabama studying Nursing. My son Nick lives in St Louis Park with his wife Mai.
