I am so blessed! God has provided me with an amazing family, a unique and fulfilling business vision, outstanding coworkers, and enriching ministry outreach. I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since December, 1999. Holly and I have two beautiful, intelligent, feisty, and somewhat strong-willed little girls. We are members of Crossgate Church in Hot Springs, Arkansas where we serve in a variety of roles. I’m a finance brat since I grew up with parents in the financial services industry. Even at age 10 I was helping my dad put together old-school slides for financial seminars. As soon as I graduated from college with a degree in business management, I attained my series 7 and series 66 securities licenses. It’s hard to believe, but I’ve been in this business for over half of my life. I’m the Registered Principal for StrongTower which basically means not only do I manage investments and do financial planning for clients, but also supervise our office via a Series 24 securities license. Beyond the business, I also love teaching what the Bible says about money. I’m blown away at how God has been willing to use us to teach good stewardship principles. He has opened the doors of churches, seminaries, marriage retreats, businesses, and more. I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to speak at over 80 different venues since 2000. We even had a radio program and TV show for many years. I have also written curriculum for the American Baptist Association and my church. My other passion is landscape photography. There is something special about getting away from the distractions of this life to enjoy God’s creation. The art of capturing nature through the lens is somewhat therapeutic to me.
