Professional office setting in Birmingham, Michigan

A trusted advisor who listens first

I became a financial advisor because I believe people deserve honest guidance — not products pushed to meet a quota. At Raymond James, I work exclusively in your interest, building relationships that last well beyond any single market cycle.

Based in Birmingham, Michigan, I serve clients throughout Southeast Michigan with personalized strategies in retirement planning, investment management, tax-efficient income, and estate preservation. Every plan I create starts with understanding what matters most to you.

tailored to your goals

Whether you're preparing for retirement, managing wealth, or planning for your family's future, I provide the expertise and attention you deserve.

Develop a clear roadmap for your retirement years — from savings accumulation to income distribution — so you can retire with confidence, not uncertainty.

Investment Management

Receive disciplined, research-driven portfolio management aligned with your risk tolerance, time horizon, and financial objectives.

Wealth & Estate Planning

Protect what you've built and ensure your assets pass to the next generation according to your wishes, with minimal tax impact.

Tax Strategy

Minimize your tax burden through strategic planning across accounts, investments, and withdrawal timing — keeping more of what you earn.

Evaluate your protection needs across life, health, disability, and long-term care to safeguard your family and your financial plan.

College Savings Planning

Explore 529 plans and other education savings strategies to help fund your children's or grandchildren's future — without derailing your retirement.

A partnership built on understanding, not transactions

I don't believe in one-size-fits-all portfolios or pushy sales tactics. Every client relationship begins with a conversation — really understanding your goals, your concerns, and what a secure future looks like for you.
