I obtained a BA degree from New Mexico State University in 1977. In my first career, I was a corporate executive with a publicly traded company. I started my second career in the financial services industry in 1998. The experiences I gained as a corporate executive and now as a financial consultant have provided me with a unique perspective when serving my clients. My wife Cindi and I live in the Catalina Foothills on Tucson's near northside. We have two grown children, Dane and Maggie, who are both graduates of the University of Arizona. We have four grandchildren who of course are perfect in every way. Hobbies include hiking, golfing, pickleball and reading. I serve on a youth sports advisory board, Southern Arizona Community Sports, which built and now runs a gym for kids' basketball and volleyball. I am an emeritus member for the Board of the Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance (SAACA) which is a cutting edge arts organization.This information is intended for use by residents of AK, AZ, CA, CO, FL, GA, HI, IL, MD, MI, MN, NC, NM, OH, SC, TN, TX, VA, WA, WI only./*********/Investment products and services are offered through Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network, LLC (WFAFN), Member SIPC, a registered broker-dealer and a separate non-bank affiliate of Wells Fargo & Company.
