Prior to joining the financial services industry, I had my own personal experience of losing 35% of my assets’ value in one day. I do not want my clients to experience how I felt that day. I am keenly aware, and observant of my client’s investment needs. I want to set proper expectations for each client on the risk and reward continuum for their investments.Chris was born and raised in Perryton.
