Why I do what I do

Why I do what I do

I've seen firsthand how overwhelming financial decisions can feel when you don't have someone you trust to guide you. I believe everyone deserves honest advice, clear communication, and a financial strategy built around their unique goals, not a one-size-fits-all solution. My goal is to help you make confident decisions through every step. This isn't just about policies or investments. It's about building lasting relationships, earning trust, and helping people create a future they can feel confident about. Knowing that I can make a meaningful difference in someone's life is what motivates me every day.

I serve members in…

Douglas County, Colorado.

I can help you plan for life using a variety of tools, including…

life insurance, retirement planning, investment strategies, education savings, income protection and wealth accumulation. I'm here to help you create a personalized plan that aligns with your goals and gives you confidence in your financial future.

Before Modern Woodmen, I…

I built my career in banking, where I helped individuals and families navigate important financial decisions every day. My experience in consumer lending, personal banking, and financial services gave me a strong foundation in understanding people's goals and the challenges they face. That experience ultimately led me to pursue a career where I could take a more comprehensive approach to helping clients protect what matters most, build wealth, and plan confidently for the future.

I chose Modern Woodmen because…

as a fraternal financial organization, Modern Woodmen is built on the belief that strong communities create stronger futures. We're committed to giving back through community outreach, volunteer initiatives, youth programs, and support for local organizations. That mission resonated with me. I wanted to be part of an organization that not only helps individuals and families build financial security but also invests in the communities they call home. Making a positive impact both inside and outside the office is one of the reasons I'm proud to represent Modern Woodmen.

My life outside of work

My family includes…

my wife, Rhae; daughter, Avery; and son, Aidan.

In my free time, you can find me…

spending time with my family, exploring the outdoors, or diving into the latest technology. I'm an avid gamer, enjoy traveling whenever I get the chance, and love discovering new places and experiences. Whether I'm enjoying a quiet evening at home or making memories with the people I care about most, I believe in living life with purpose and making the most of every moment.

My personal motto is…

You don't have to be the smartest or the strongest. Success belongs to those who are willing to work harder, stay consistent, and keep showing up when others quit.

My hidden talent is…

grilling. I treat it like a craft. I enjoy experimenting with flavors, timing, and technique, and there’s nothing better than sharing a great meal fresh off the grill with family and friends.

My local community impact

I have lived in my community…

my entire life. It’s home to me, and I’ve had the opportunity to see it grow and change over the years while staying connected to the people and places that make it special.

What I like best about my community is…

the strong sense of connection. It’s a place where people take pride in where they live, support local businesses, and look out for one another. It feels like a community that’s always growing but still maintains a hometown feel.

I’m a member of…

Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce, where I enjoy building relationships with local business owners and staying connected to the growth and development of our community.

Our logo has evolved over the years. From a black and white emblem to the blue and green shield we know today. Our shield represents the protection we provide our members. And the clouds form an eagle's head, looking out for the communities we serve.
