My Merrill career began in 2011 following graduation from Vanderbilt University. While at Vanderbilt, I was a member of the varsity football team and later took the role of student assistant after sustaining a career-ending injury.As an advisor on the Global Corporate & Institutional Advisory Services (GCIAS) team at Merrill, I concentrate on working with corporate executives and their families. Using a systematic and thorough process, I strive to help answer the questions "is it possible" and "do I have enough" for the clients and families that I work with. My aim is to emphasize learning the unique goals and circumstances that affect each individual and family. As a result of these discussions, I am able to work with clients to implement goals-based wealth planning strategies designed to achieve their investment, education, retirement and legacy needs.My wife, Mary Rachel, and I are blessed with two children, a son, Tripper, and a daughter, Sarah. As a family we reside in the metro-Atlanta area and enjoy calling this community home.In my spare time I enjoy endurance sports having competed in multiple half and full ironman distance events.*Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards Inc. owns the certification marks CFP® and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ in the U.S.*Investments & Wealth Institute™ (The Institute) is the owner of the certification marks CIMA® and Certified Investment Management Analyst®.
