Before becoming a financial planner, Michael worked as an accountant for almost six years. It was during this time that he saw first-hand how seemingly “small” financial decisions can have an enormous impact on whether someone reaches their long-term financial goals. He came to realize that people don’t deliberately sabotage their goals with poor financial choices; they simply lack the right information, tools, and guidance to make better decisions.
Seeing a tremendous need for unbiased financial guidance, Michael earned the prestigious Certified Financial Planner® practitioner designation and began delivering such advice in his own Fee-Only financial planning firm. He enjoys providing advice that focuses on the “big picture,” makes a real difference in peoples’ lives, and gives direction and meaning to their day-to-day financial choices.
Michael has been a resident of Springfield, Missouri since childhood. He lives in a restored 1913 bungalow home in the city’s historic district with his wife, Gayle, and daughter, Linnea.
