Work History

VP Financial Consultant

Charles Schwab
07.2021 - Current

As a VP Financial Consultant I managed a practice of more than 250 dedicated households to not only maintain their relationship at the firm, but to also take them through our sales process of Engage, Discover, Gain commitment, and to Enhance their client experience on an ongoing basis. This role allowed me to leverage my sales skills to enroll clients into managed investing solutions while also growing the client's relationship with our firm by acquiring additional outside assets.


  • Engaged with multi million dollar clients to have in depth wealth management conversations that uncovered their families needs
  • Based on each client's needs, I was able to then leverage partners and solutions at the firm to drive sales business to the finish line
  • Completed annual reviews with clients to ensure the solutions in place were still suitable
  • Scaled my business organically by way of client referrals

Associate Financial Consultant

Charles Schwab
08.2020 - 07.2021

I served as a front line for the local retail branch and assisted walk in clients with various service tasks while also obtaining deeper understanding of their needs through proper questioning in order to position Schwab's client solutions. I blocked my calendar for dedicated outbound calls to new branch leads in order to schedule client discovery meetings and move the sales process forward. Many times this resulted in taking clients through a process of discovery, planning, and then actionable next steps to drive the business forward. Once uncovering business opportunities with clients, I then transitioned them to our senior consultants so that the business could be closed and the client relationship strengthened.

Golf, Physical Fitness, Travel,

I keep my work life balance in check by traveling to new places, which often are centered around the game of golf, and by also challenging myself in the gym. Golf has not only allowed me to meet incredible people but has also taught me many lessons about life and business. On the first tee you're all strangers but by the end of the round you've learned so much about your playing partners whether it be through observation or from the conversations you've shared with them over the course of a 4 hour round of golf. As for the physical fitness... it ties directly into sales. People make a judgement of you before you even speak to them, and I prefer to put my best appearance in front of people at all times. They know that I'm disciplined before even speaking to me.
