Get to know me

As a First Citizens business banker, it’s important to invest in understanding your business, strategies and key objectives. An established process and skilled team of specialists help me tailor solutions to fit you and your organization. Clients appreciate our trusted partnership in planning for long-term success.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Friends University with a concentration in Business Administration and Management. My career includes over 20 years in banking with the majority of that time spent in the Commercial Banking space. My specific focus has been working with commercial clients that are in the growth phase of the business cycle.

My spouse, Tracy and I have been married for 5 years. We are the proud parents of two young children, Cason (2) and Carley (10 months).

I am passionate about spending my spare time with my family and traveling. I also enjoy my golf trips with my close friends and going to Kansas Chiefs watch parties. I look forward to coaching my kids sporting teams in the future! In the meantime, I love playing with them when I come home from the office.

I invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn.
