About Me
For the past 23 years, I have worked at Morgan Stanley, one of the preeminent financial services firms in the country. I proudly serve as the primary Financial Advisor for a select group of families in the Carolinas and throughout the country.
As your Financial Advisor, we will work together to create and manage a customized, goals-based, comprehensive financial game plan utilizing the resources of Morgan Stanley. I take great pride in helping my clients navigate uncertain investing climates and unpredictable life events—so they can stay on course and pursue their goals through patience, discipline and stewardship.
I realize that the families I serve have earned their wealth through many years of hard work, commitment, passion and love. And I strive to embody those same attributes in everything I do for my clients.
Growing up in Ohio, my father was a golf professional and I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with business leaders at the country club where he worked. I’ve always enjoyed statistics and helping people, and after spending a day with a member (who was a financial advisor) when I was 12, I knew this was my calling.
My wife, Sherry, and I reside in Charlotte, North Carolina with our two children, Benjamin (13) and Dayvinny (7), and our dogs—Scarlett, our beloved Siberian Husky, and Mia, our Cockapoo.
I enjoy supporting my community through mentorship, mentoring men in the Charlotte community, serving as a youth sports coach, playing amateur golf tournaments, and supporting a number of causes that are close to the hearts of my clients and friends. I am also a member of Kingdom Advisors, an advocacy group that helps advisors integrate their Christian faith to provide biblically wise financial guidance to the clients we serve.
Morgan Stanley has no affiliation with Kingdom Advisors and the CKA® designation is not overseen or endorsed by the Firm. Morgan Stanley does not discriminate on the basis of any protected status and welcomes clients and provides investment advisory services without regard to religious affiliation.
