I’ve established a career in the financial field in part by successfully transitioning the teaching, coaching and mentoring skills I developed on the football field as a Big Ten and NFL quarterback and a Division I and high school coach.

I’m originally from Grand Forks, N.D., and it’s great to be a part of a bank that calls North Dakota its headquarters. I earned my bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin, where I was a quarterback and team captain, winning the Rose Bowl along the way! I was drafted by the New York Jets in 2003 and spent 6 seasons in the NFL. After coaching quarterbacks at the University of Pittsburgh, I came back to the Twin Cities with my family. I spent 3 seasons as head football coach at Cretin-Derham Hall in St. Paul.

Along the way, I also became a licensed financial advisor. I most enjoy building meaningful relationships with my clients. My role is not only in their financial life, but also in helping them making decisions to live their best life overall.

My wife, Natalie, and I live in Eagan with our 5 kids. We’re active members of Nativity of Our Lord parish, and I serve on the Minnesota Advisory Board for St. Paul’s Outreach. I’m also an avid golfer.
