My Mission Statement
I work closely with you to understand your financial situation and future plans. With more than 31 years of investing experience, together we create a comprehensive investment strategy that closely aligns with your values to help achieve your life goals.
Welcome
It’s a privilege and honor to work with my clients – everyone from career professionals to successful dual-income households or high net-worth entrepreneurs and their families. Among their many unique goals one is typically shared by all: to preserve and protect their finances while making sure their assets are working just as hard as they do.
I enjoy the process of getting to know a client as a person as well as an investor. Then together we work closely to implement personalized investment strategies, develop personalized lending and tax strategies for their business needs, even navigating the transition of wealth to the next generation. As their facilitator-in-chief, I know how to coordinate complexities and work in partnership with their attorneys and accountants to make sure comprehensive strategies are well-identified, measurable and implemented.
Crafting thoughtful solutions to meet the unique goals of every client is what I love most about my work.
Today, wealth is almost always accompanied by added complexity. While the majority of my clients are capable of managing their own wealth, it has been my experience that they continue to see real value in having a personal relationship with a professional advisor - someone who is both a close confidante and expert resource when it comes to navigating life’s unique situations.
Ultimately, my clients work with me so that they can focus more of their time where their own talents, interests, and sense of purpose are found.

Clients
Whether high-level corporate executives, successful entrepreneurs or people who have simply worked hard and saved their money, my clients understand the challenges of building wealth or saving for an important goal such as retirement. They also understand the value of working with a financial advisor who understands their concerns, knows how to help them invest wisely, and enables them to delegate the details of their finances so they can enjoy their lives.
As your financial advisor, you will appreciate our "client first" approach with myself or a caring assistant to handle requests quickly.
From growing up on a ranch to starting and operating my own small business after graduating from college, I respect the importance of work and discipline, of saving rather than spending, and investing your money well—for yourself and the people you care about.

1Morgan Stanley offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you. Please consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences or review our Understanding Your Brokerage and Investment Advisory Relationships brochure available at www.morganstanley.com/wealth-relationshipwithms/pdfs/understandingyourrelationship.pdf.
For more information, please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Client Relationship Summary.
2Morgan Stanley’s investment advisory programs may require a minimum asset level and, depending on your specific investment objectives and financial position, may not be appropriate for you. Please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC program disclosure brochure (the “Morgan Stanley ADV”) for more information in the investment advisory programs available. The Morgan Stanley ADV is available at www.morganstanley.com/ADV.
3When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.

7Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable or impact investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability and impact criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.

Individuals should always check with their tax or legal advisor before engaging in any transaction involving 529 Plans, Education Savings Accounts and other tax-advantaged investments.
9Alternative Investments are speculative and include a high degree of risk. An investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his/her investment. Alternative investments are appropriate only for qualified, long-term investors who are willing to forgo liquidity and put capital at risk for an indefinite period of time.
