My why in life...I exist to encourage and inspire the lives of others through the Art of Generosity. As a Financial Advisor at Sentara Capital, I partner with affluent families, business owners, professionals, and retirees to navigate complex financial decisions with clarity and confidence. My focus is helping clients make the transition from accumulation to distribution — and then moving intentionally toward maximizing their legacy and generosity. What sets our approach apart is the combination of active portfolio management using individual stocks and ETFs, paired with proactive tax planning strategies that keep more of what you've built working for you. After 17+ years in financial services — including roles at Wells Fargo, Truist, and Regions Bank — I made the move to the independent RIA space to operate as a true fiduciary. No quotas. No activity metrics. Just quality relationships and creative solutions built around what matters most to you. I graduated from Liberty University with a degree in Business Finance. Beyond client work, I'm passionate about the adoption community. My wife Christina and I live in Woodstock, Georgia with our 11 children. When I'm not in the office, you'll find me running, watching football, or trying not to pull a hammy playing Ultimate Frisbee with F3. (Any guesses why my F3 nickname is Myrtle? 🐢) Sentara Capital serves individual clients, pension and profit-sharing plans, and other business clients by providing comprehensive financial planning, investment consultation, and portfolio management.
