My passions revolve around family, friends, our community and the outdoors. RoseAnne and I have been married for over 25 years and have three wonderful children. Adam is our oldest and is married to our wonderful daughter in law Kinga.  He currently serves in the Coast Guard and they live in New York with their dog Gideon. Benjamin takes up the middle and lives locally in Portland with his amazing girlfriend Molly. He is a contractor and is simply enjoying his young adulthood. Athena is our youngest and works full time as a waitress while attending school at Portland Community College.  My wife RoseAnne is a massage therapist, and I must say, all bias aside, gives the best massage in the City.

When we aren’t working, we enjoy backpacking, riding bikes, running, camping, traveling and in general being outdoors in any way we can. I’m a scuba diver, hang glider, skydiver, and you can find me mountain biking or white water kayaking from time to time. Our calendar is almost always full and when we get burned out, we enjoy a pajama Sunday to unwind watching movies and eating good food.

I love being a Certified Financial Planner™ practitioner and I love being at TenBridge Partners. It has been an amazing career for me spanning the last two decades, and I work with some amazing people who enjoy life and most of all enjoy people. I feel fortunate to work with my clients, have a loving family and many friendships, and to be allowed to enjoy life to the fullest in a manner I find fulfilling.

My thanks as always to those who make it possible.

Music I Love
I grew up a metal head from the 70s and 80s, but love almost any kind of music except gangster rap, twangy country or opera.

If I had a perfect day…
It would be spent in the ocean or the high alpine of the Rocky Mountains, with friends and family, enjoying Mother Nature.

At TenBridge Partners I handle everything exciting. This includes handling trading activity, maintain the performance reporting, process the TenBridge books, records and billing along with ensuring that all compliance standards are met. These activities help the team stay focused on planning, the core of what we do.

Having grown up just north of Vancouver, WA in Brush Prairie, I am a Northwest native. My educational journey led me to the east side of Washington where I attended Washington State University in Pullman and received my degree in Business Administration.

My career path has offered me a plethora of different experiences. I’ve spent over 6 years as a Financial Planner for both large corporations and independent RIA’s. I’ve also led Purchasing, Supply Chain, Pricing and Data Reporting teams across various industries. I enjoy the operational aspects of business along with detailed, data driven analytics.

The Great Northwest has so much to offer and I’m an avid mountain biker riding the many trails of Central Oregon. Running and hiking different areas in the NW provide views that are some of the best in the world. You can also find me enjoying a round of golf or a tennis match. I’m constantly rooting for my local teams, the Portland Trailblazers, Seattle Mariners and the Washington State Cougars. You will also see me exploring the amazing Portland food and craft beer scene or attending multiple philanthropic events with my wife Sara.
