Stewardship is important to my clients and me. Stewardship is the idea that the money we have, the time we're given, and the gifts and experiences we have should be managed well so that we can be all that we can be - to make the world a better place for us and those around us. My goal is to help free up my client's time spent on figuring out the tax code, investments and retirement income planning so that they can focus on being a good steward of two more important resources - their time and gifts/experiences. As a financial stewardship partner, I help my clients pay less in taxes, invest wisely, and develop and follow a plan so they won't outlive their retirement income. I’ve always had a passion for helping people with their personal finances. As an accountant, I was approached frequently by people with tax or personal finance questions. I found that helping these people was something I loved. Ultimately, this love for helping people with their personal finance questions is what led me to a career as a tax-focused, comprehensive personal financial planner. My greatest joy is spending time with my wife, Michelle, and five kids; Jack, Kate, Elijah, Clayton, and Annalise. I also enjoy mountain biking, snowboarding, and running in the beautiful Colorado outdoors. I grew up in New Zealand, where I developed my passion for being outdoors.
