Focus
John began his practice with a wife, four small children, and a belief that families deserved honest, principled financial guidance. Over the next three and a half decades, he built the practice one relationship at a time.
He earned his bachelor’s degree in accountancy from the University of Missouri and began his career at a Big Four public accounting firm, going on to serve as a Certified Public Accountant before turning his focus to wealth management. He holds the Portfolio Investment Management (PIM) designation and has spent nearly four decades in the industry, sitting with families through every kind of market cycle, life event, and financial decision.
His sons now lead the day-to-day. John sits on the investment committee, advises on the most complex situations, and remains a trusted presence for the families who have known him the longest.
Outside the Office
John and his wife, Mary, have been married for more than 35 years. They are the proud parents of four adult children and a growing number of grandchildren. He volunteers with the Ronald McDonald House, the Beta Theta Pi Foundation, and his parish. On weekends, he is at the family cabin or cheering on the Cardinals and Mizzou Tigers.
