As a financial advisor at Morgan Stanley, I help lead a team of financial advisors to ensure clients are properly positioned to meet their financial objectives. We work together to put our clients’ needs first and simplify the complexity in their financial lives. The advice and guidance we provide is based on time-tested planning and investment principles.
I began my career in the financial industry more than 30 years ago at Merrill Lynch and successfully moved my advisory practice to Morgan Stanley in 2014. At all stages of my career, I have combined extensive financial knowledge with a passion for helping clients reach their goals. My philosophy of wealth planning is based on building long-lasting relationships while providing a high standard of care that always puts clients’ best interest first.
My education includes two bachelor’s degrees from Illinois State University, one in political science and legal studies and another in business finance. Early in my studies, I served the Public Defender in Washington, D.C. as an intern, and in 1982 attended a summer session at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In 2016, I was recognized by Chicago magazine as a Five-Star Wealth Manager for the second consecutive year.
