Keith believes that you have a choice in financial advisors and in many areas providing customer service is a lost art. Ultimately, the mark of an excellent financial advisor or firm is how well they deliver on what they say they will do. Keith gets to know his clients personally to provide the service they deserve.
Keith holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Texas Tech University. After working several years as an engineer, Keith developed an interest and passion to assist clients in their financial lives.

Keith believes that the need for thoughtful and objective financial guidance has never been more important in the abundance of information available in the “Information Age.” While sifting through all the information, finding a qualified financial advisor can be difficult. As a financial professional, Keith has the freedom to determine what strategies, services, and products work best for individual clients and their unique situations. Keith’s clients consist of pre-retirees, retirees, professionals, and business owners.
