After eight years in the U.S. Air Force and another eight as a federal law enforcement officer, my drive to serve others is stronger than ever. That’s why I’ve dedicated the last ten years of my life to helping fellow public servants protect their futures. In my practice as a Thrivent Financial Professional, I focus primarily on growing members’ financial literacy and guiding them through retirement income planning. I live in Prior Lake with my wife and our two children. My family loves travelling and spending time with loved ones. We are highly involved with Saint Michael’s Church and I am an active board member of Chesterton Academy and Christian Heritage Academy.

With 24 years in the fire service, 6 years paid on call at Prior Lake Fire Department and the last 18 years as a career Firefighter/ Paramedic at the Mdewakanton Fire Department, I understand the challenges of the firefighter lifestyle. We respond to all types of call both day and night. It’s a challenging career that demands thorough preparation. Like me, retirement will be upon you before you know it and you need to be financially prepared as well. As a Financial Advisor with the Valor Group at Thrivent Financial, I want to help you be confident in your financial future. We are proud to serve the men and women of the public safety sector from which we came.

I live in Prior Lake with my wife and adopted daughter. We also have 2 adult daughters and 2 grandchildren. We enjoy spending time with family and entertaining friends. I enjoy fishing. We attend St. Michaels Church in Prior Lake and support several church-based charities, as well as St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Folds of Honor, Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, and Opportunity International.
