My story

Delivering solutions that fit your circumstances.

As a Vice President and Financial Advisor in the Private Client Group at Truist Investment Services, I’m committed to your financial well-being and to delivering solutions that best fit your circumstances.

I started my career in 1997 and have spent it helping clients with investment and financial planning — first with SunTrust, and since 2021 with Truist. Over that time, I’ve seen markets rise and fall, and I’ve learned that the clients who do best are the ones with a clear plan and someone in their corner to help them stick to it.

That’s why I follow a disciplined process: assessing your needs, setting and prioritizing goals, evaluating the trade-offs, and implementing strategies designed to get you where you want to go.
