In addition, Kevin’s experience includes trading listed equities on the New York and NASDAQ stock exchanges for a firm based in Chicago. There he was a partner, senior equity trader, and trainer and was responsible for managing a team of traders.
Kevin graduated from Indiana University where he earned a degree in public finance. He earned a Certificate in Financial Planning from Northwestern University and is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional.

Kevin lives in St. Charles, IL with his wife Jennifer and their four children, Tyler, Emma, Anna, and Michael. During his free time, he enjoys coaching his children in their extracurricular activities, golfing, fishing, and traveling.
I especially enjoy helping clients when they are going through major transitions in their lives. It’s truly an honor to be the trusted advisor who they can lean on to help them make wise and informed financial decisions.
