Accessible, knowledgeable and experienced, I am committed to building and maintaining strong client relationships. I am passionate about what I do and I bring that passion to helping every client make what may be the most important financial decisions of their lives.
I am a CFP® professional and a Wealth Management Advisor who joined the Santa Rosa office of Merrill in 1994. I am a qualified Portfolio Manager who, in addition to providing traditional advice and guidance, can also help clients pursue their objectives by building and managing my own personalized or defined strategies, which may incorporate individual stocks and bonds, Merrill Lynch Wealth Management model portfolios, and third-party investment strategies. When servicing clients through the firm's Investment Advisory Program, as a Portfolio Manager I may manage investment strategies on a discretionary basis. I help clients develop strategies to manage their personal and business finances. I am a graduate of U.C. Davis, and am active with various civic groups, including currently or previously serving on Boards or committees with the following organizations: Sonoma-Marin Fair, Family Justice Center Sonoma County Foundation, Sonoma County Farm Bureau, Santa Rosa Chamber of Commerce, Rohnert Park Chamber of Commerce, Sonoma County Fair and Active 20-30 Club. My wife Judy and I live and raise winegrapes in the Cotati area.
a) Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. owns the certification marks CFP®, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM and CFP® in the U.S., which it awards to individuals who successfully complete CFP Board's initial and ongoing certification requirements.
I follow the deep-seated Merrill tradition of participating in the communities we serve. This drives my interest in spending time volunteering with organizations in our community.
