MY FINANCIAL SERVICES CAREER BEGAN IN 1986

From my 30-year career at Accenture where I was responsible for Financial Services Technology for North America, I learned to listen more than I talk so that I can understand who my clients are and what is important to them. I’ve learned that even with the best-laid plans, we are thrown curve balls. My passion is to work with people before, during, and after those times to help them acquire the financial insight and tools they need to survive, thrive and grow.

MY PRIVATE VISTA

Whatever is in my future, My Private Vista is to spend more of that future with my wife Kathy and our two adult kids, Joe and Anna. I see myself continuing to watch a lot of Notre Dame and Chicago sports, while reading mysteries, doing puzzles and following politics.
