He says, "I grew up on Navy bases on the East Coast and very early on I learned to adapt to my surroundings and read people - a skill that is useful in the wealth management profession. It's fascinating to listen to everyone's story because each one is unique. I appreciate my clients' candor and intelligence; I hold them in high esteem. The thing that gives me the most satisfaction, is helping people succeed and grow. This also applies to working with my colleagues.

Birthplace: Long Beach, CA

Favorite childhood memory: Growing up in Long Beach, we had more parks per square mile than any other city in Los Angeles. My friends and I would build dirt jumps for our BMX bikes at the parks every day after school. Needless to say, my love of two wheels started when I was young.

Hobbies: Anything with two wheels has always fascinated me. I grew up racing bikes, and as I got older transitioned into motocross. I also enjoy hiking, surfing, diving, and occasionally a quick game of racquetball.

Passions: The outdoors and any activities within them. I love to get out of the city and head to the mountains for a ski trip, an epic hike, or a long mountain bike descent. I'm also passionate about traveling and exploring new parts of the world - every new place brings its own lessons and perspective to life that I find invaluable.

Favorite quote: "I do not think that there is any other quality so essential to success of any kind as the quality of perseverance. It overcomes almost everything, even nature."
