Edward Jones

Wealth Management & Exit Planning | Website

On October 7, 1975, President Gerald Ford signed a law that allowed women admittance 
into all-male military academies. Seven years later, my parents met as freshman at the US 
Military Academy at West Point. Their legacy of scholarship, leadership and service has 
been a guiding force throughout my life. Hearing them recall stories of their sacrifice during 
Operation Desert Storm birthed in me a desire to be brave like them. Observing their 
financial struggles however, activated my decision to study wealth. 

While pursuing a degree in business at Alcorn State University and playing Division I 
basketball on scholarship, I learned what it meant to be a financial advisor at Edward Jones. 
The company's commitment to putting the clients' needs first resonated deeply with me. 
This year, I celebrated ten years with the firm.

As a Partner and a  CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, I partner closely with my clients to 
address a host of financial concerns including tax mitigation, estate considerations, wealth 
protection strategies and retirement income planning. As a Certified Exit Planning 
Advisor®, I guide business owners through the daunting process of selling their businesses. 
I serve as an advocate for them as they meet with various business advisors to verify the 
business, personal and financial aspects of their lives are ready for a profitable and tax 
efficient exit. Because of our experience, we mostly enjoy working with established 
business owners, executives and retirees, or those within five years of retirement. 

We have been incredibly fortunate to develop wonderful partnerships with our clients' 
CPAs, attorneys and other trusted professionals, and enjoy collaborating with them to 
develop complete, tailored strategies. 

I've also been blessed with my wonderful husband of eight years, Jerrell, and my sassy 
4-year-old daughter named Zoe. 

Our team is committed to developing a lifelong partnership with those we serve. Give us a 
call, and we will let you know if we or someone we know can help serve you. I truly 
appreciate your interest in my practice, and I look forward to speaking with you soon. 

With personal service,
