Man on Fire. You can't go wrong with Denzel.
What’s your favorite quote?

- Vince Lombardi
What’s the most important thing in your life?
My wife Alyssa and our daughter Avery, who will be two years old in December.
If you could be any animal, what would you be?
A leopard. In the world of the African big cats, they’re the perfect combination of power and speed.

What is your favorite thing about working at SVA so far?
My favorite part about SVA so far is definitely the people. Everyone has been extremely welcoming and helpful in my first few weeks.
What drew you toward Financial Planning?
I first become interested in working in personal finance a few years ago primarily through listening to podcasts. Over the years that interest continued to grow and I decided it was time to make a career change and pursue personal finance. I also really enjoy working with people, and getting to know them, and helping them reach their goals.
