About Me

As a financial advisor at TIAA Wealth Management, I help clients navigate life's financial complexities with personalized, actionable advice. My work centers on comprehensive financial planning — meeting clients where they are today while keeping a clear eye on their long-term goals. I joined TIAA in 2017, bringing with me 14 years of prior experience as a financial advisor at Hantz Group, where I partnered with individuals and families on comprehensive financial planning and helped them work toward their long-term financial aspirations. That foundation, combined with my tenure at TIAA, gives me a broad perspective and deep commitment to the clients I serve. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Advertising from Michigan State University. Outside of work, family comes first — I cherish time spent with my wife and son, whether we are traveling, exploring the outdoors, or taking in a sporting event together. I am also an avid golfer, a recreational baseball player, and an enthusiastic reader.
