I am an experienced Financial Advisor based out of Charlotte, NC. My practice adheres to the Independent Fiduciary model, working only to serve my clients above all else.
In 2004, I graduated from the University of Maryland with a B.S. in Nuclear Engineering. From there I began working as a defense contractor to the US Navy for six years. In 2010, I graduated from George Mason University with a Master of Business Administration.
In 2011, I relocated to Charlotte where my wife was completing her Emergency Medicine Residency. There I joined MassMutual Carolinas, allowing me to start my entrepreneurial passion and focus on providing comprehensive financial planning & wealth management.
In 2012, I teamed up with Eric Little CPA. Our vision was to bring taxes & finance under one roof, providing our clients with a coordinated and comprehensive financial plan. Together we helped numerous small business owners with strategies to reduce their tax liabilities, while save for their long-term goals.
In 2020, I expanded my practice and teamed with Robbins Financial Group. Our synergies in both Wealth Management and Financial Planning provide our clients with an increase in both resources and services.
I currently reside in Charlotte, NC with my wife and our two daughters. In my spare time I enjoy traveling, golfing, cooking, and spending time at the beach.
