Clients I specialize in: New investors, Nearing retirement, Established investors

It is my pleasure to serve the financial needs of people in the Southern Illinois area. My experience in the financial industry started in 2005 and I became a Wealth Management Banker in 2021.

I want to make managing your finances as easy as possible for you. As your Wealth Management Banker, I will partner with an investment professional to bring you a holistic approach to financial management. We will collaborate to understand your financial situation and propose personalized strategies to help you work toward your financial goals.

Outside of work, I volunteer with community events, local shelters, food pantries and Habitat for Humanity. In my free time, I enjoy going on adventures with my boys and watching them play sports. I have a 18-year-old that just started college and my 11-year-old is going to start wrestling soon. When they are not keeping me busy, my time is usually filled with some kind of family fun. In the summer, you can typically find us playing in the woods or out on the water. I love spending time with my friends, too. Whether we are gathered around a bonfire, out listening to live music, or finding new wineries...we always have a good time!

Services I specialize in

To support your personal or business needs we offer a range of premier banking products, financing options and exclusive benefits, plus 24/7 account management through digital channels.

Liquid asset secured financing – a line of credit secured by eligible assets in your investment account – can be useful when you want to generate cash flow quickly for a financial opportunity or challenge.

From purchasing a first home to financing investment property, we have your mortgage needs covered with a variety of loan options, plus information to support you on your homebuying journey.

Whether a loan, line of credit or other financing alternative is the best fit for what you’re working to achieve, we’ll help you review your options and create a funding plan.
