I am a lifelong resident of Republic County, married to my wife Rachelle Scott. We have called Belleville home since marrying in 1991 after both graduating from KSU. I began my career in 1991, and for more than three decades I’ve been helping small businesses and families work toward their financial goals with clarity and confidence. Growing up and working in a small town shaped my belief that strong relationships, open communication, and genuinely listening to clients are the foundation of meaningful financial guidance. I also believe that serving and supporting my community strengthens those relationships and keeps me connected to the people I’m fortunate to work with. By understanding what matters most to each client, I strive to provide thoughtful, personalized strategies that support their long-term financial well-being.
