My mission is to help clients feel informed, confident, and secure in their financial decisions while building a foundation for generational impact. I focus on removing financial barriers so you can live the life you want—supported by clarity, literacy, and long-term purpose.
Profile

Many professionals I meet are not looking for another opinion or a stack of charts. They are looking for someone who will take the time to understand how their income works, what decisions are coming next, and what actually matters to them.

I work with high-earning professionals whose financial lives are complex and often evolving. Variable compensation, equity, business income, and career transitions create planning challenges that do not fit neatly into standard advice, and that is where careful listening and structure become essential.

The clients I commonly work with include:

  • Corporate executives managing equity compensation, deferred compensation, and concentrated positions
  • Physicians and medical professionals navigating high income, tax complexity, and practice considerations
  • Small business owners integrating personal and business financial decisions
  • Athletes and related professionals, including NIL and early-career planning, as an emerging area of focus

    My approach starts with understanding how clients think about money, risk, and trade-offs before moving into strategy. From there, I help clients organize cash flow, investment decisions, and long-term planning in a way that adapts as circumstances change, rather than reacting to each new event in isolation.

    If you feel your financial situation is more nuanced than the typical planning conversation allows, I welcome a discussion.

    Outside of work, I am a die-hard University of Tennessee sports fan, love cooking and traveling, and enjoy going on adventures with my Golden Retriever, Cooper.
