I’ve spent my 30-year career learning everything I can about the investment industry as an executive, portfolio manager, educator, and financial product development expert. I know how to create low-cost investment portfolios that help clients build wealth, and I’m dedicated to putting clients’ goals first.

Throughout my career, I’ve maintained a focus on financial planning and education. I have been a Certified Financial Planner™ certificant since 1996 and a Chartered Financial Analyst charterholder since 2005. I have been an adjunct professor in DePaul University’s department of finance since 2011 and spent eight years teaching graduate courses at Lake Forest Graduate School of Management as well.
