My Background
After graduating from the University of Missouri, I began my career with A.G. Edwards in 1981. During my first 7 years with A.G. Edwards, I developed the firms financial planning and retirement planning platforms. In addition, I participated in the monthly training classes offered all new brokers as well as traveling around the country teaching advisors how to use the planning capabilities we developed to better service their clients.
By 1987, after having secured some large planning contracts with McDonald Douglas, Exxon, Chevron, Brown Shoe, Edison Brothers, Ralston Purina and Southwestern Bell, I moved from the home office of A.G. Edwards to their Frontenac branch to become an Investment Advisor. I spent the next 22 years with A.G. Edwards as an advisor until 2009 when we were acquired by Wachovia Securities. After leaving Wachovia just after the merger, I moved my practice and clients to Morgan Stanley.
I spent the next 14 years with Morgan Stanley in their Clayton Office before returning to Wells Fargo Advisors. Wells acquired Wachovia during my departure. So to me, coming back to Wells Fargo was like a homecoming.
For more than 43 years, I have assisted clients in the management of their investments by providing independent, objective and unbiased advice.
