Get to know me

As a First Citizens Banker, it is important that our team distinguish itself by truly understanding a client's business, its strategies and key objectives. From there, it is our responsibility to add value to all relationships by bringing them resources in addition to a team of specialists. Our goal is to create a long-term, mutually beneficial relationship where we are considered a partner in both good times and bad. I see my role as being there to help our clients achieve their economic goals.

I earned my Bachelors degree in Business Administration and Economics from N.C. State University. My 30 year + career has covered North and South Carolina, Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana. After spending over 14 years in the Upstate, I call this area home.

My wife, Karen is a retired Pastor and Chaplain. We have been married for over 30 years and are the proud parents of two adult daughters and a son, and we enjoy spending time with our three grandchildren and three Brittany spaniels.

I am passionate about engaging with clients and bringing new ideas and financial solutions to the table. Anyone who knows me knows that I love what I do. I have the best job in the world!! I invite you to connect with me on LinkedIn and Facebook.
