Financial planning isn’t just about crunching numbers, it’s about helping people turn their dreams into reality. Growing up I noticed the financial struggles many people faced, which fueled my interest in personal finance. Recognizing that financial literacy is a huge pain point in society and often overlooked in our education system, I set out to take control of my financial life. While going through college debt-free, I started my first business, making car parts, motorcycle parts, and metal art. That experience taught me valuable lessons the hard way, but I quickly realized my true passion wasn’t in metalwork, it was in helping people navigate their finances. Today, I’m deeply committed to the financial planning profession. I earned my CFP® (CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER®) and CEPA (Certified Exit Planning Advisor) designations to better serve my clients. I’m actively involved in my local Financial Planning Association (FPA), as well as mentoring students and aspiring financial planners. I love sharing what I've learned and inspiring the next generation. Over the years, I’ve worked with many different types of people, but I specifically enjoy working with business owners. They juggle a lot, managing cash flow, planning for growth, and balancing their personal and business finances. It can feel overwhelming at times, and I love helping them tackle those challenges. My personal experience in business and training puts me in a unique position to make a real difference in their lives and help them achieve their goals. I’ve had the opportunity to help clients achieve significant milestones such as: -Become debt-free -Purchase their dream home -Transitioning to more fulfilling careers -Achieving financial independence These meaningful milestones allow you to live the life you want, and money is a tool to get you there. Outside of work, I lead an active and adventurous lifestyle. You can find me hiking, snowboarding, practicing Jiu Jitsu, or kickboxing. These activities reflect my values of discipline and goal-setting, which I bring into my professional life. If you’re ready to take charge of your finances with a personalized plan that aligns with your goals, I’m here to guide you through every step.

I learned quickly in my first year working in the financial services field the importance of having a financial plan and a trusted advisor. It was 2008, the beginning of the financial crisis. At that time, I worked almost exclusively with teachers and public school staff as a registered representative and investment advisor. The time demonstrated that even with great public benefits, everyone should be thinking about investing in their future. In 2011, my wife and I made the decision to move west to Oregon. We had heard that it was a place where you could make a career, but also provided a different environment to enjoy other priorities like being outdoors and access to a great lifestyle, adventure, and community. I started working at a local Portland financial services firm that was home base for around 150 high end independent firms across the country. The firm provided insurance and investment products for the ultra-affluent. While working my way to senior management, I was able to earn other licenses to further my education and also learn intimately the pros and cons of how different practices operate. Most of all, working with many different small offices affiliated with the firm gave me the ability to understand some of the conflicts in our industry along with how individual clients may not understand how their advisor is getting compensated. After almost 8 years, I made the decision that working with clients directly was the direction for me. I earned the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation and started working at a small financial planning firm in Portland. After being given the opportunity to join Clarity Capital Management as a fee-only advisor and partner, I decided to join Ryan Mohr and the firm. While not working, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Amanda, son, Neil, and our four legged adventure partner, Cori. I enjoy backcountry skiing, long distance trail running, and all forms of cycling. Please don’t be surprised if I show up to a client meeting on two wheels!
