With over 45 years in the financial services industry, Eddie has the experience to help clients and friends with almost any financial need. Eddie believes that the most important thing about his client relationships is that they trust his advice and opinions.  Trust is very important in this business.  It comes from years of caring for others and truly listening to clients’ financial concerns. 

Eddie was born in Fayetteville, graduated Terry Sanford High in 1969 and went on to earn a B.A. from UNC in 1973. After spending his first 15 years of his professional career in the banking industry, Eddie has spent the last 30 years in brokerage financial services, beginning with A.G. Edwards in 1988. At Wells Fargo Advisors, Eddie has earned the title of Managing Director – Investments, as well as being distinctively named to the firm’s 2022 Platinum Council.

He is very active in his church and community and really enjoys helping others.  He is currently on the Finance Committee of the Diocese of Christ our Hope and is on the Diocesan Council.  Eddie is also treasurer of Operation Inasmuch- an organization that feeds and houses the homeless and less fortunate in Fayetteville.   

Eddie’s wife Donna is retired, but is also very active in their church.  Faith is the major driving force in their lives.  They have two children and one grandchild, Will.  Jackson is on the Waren Investment team here at Wells Fargo Advisors, and Taylor is an accountant in Raleigh. 

In his spare time, Eddie enjoys trips to their house in the mountains for some fly fishing and walks on the trails; spending time with Will, playing golf and going to UNC ball games.

The Platinum Council (previously known as Premier Advisor) distinction is held by a select group of Financial Advisors within Wells Fargo Advisors as measured by completion of educational components, business production based on the past year, and professionalism. Additional criteria, best practices and team structure, may also be used to determine recipients.
