My wife, Leah, and our kids, Madison, Nolan, & Orson, are the sources of my passion and drive. We are proud members of Terrace Lake Church in Columbus Indiana and our faith is the foundation on which our lives and practice are built. We stay busy volunteering, 4-wheeling, and spending time with family and friends.

I love working with individuals and families to create and implement a financial fitness plan to help you reach your goals. Building a personal relationship allows me to provide financial guidance based on what’s important to you. I count it a privilege that I am able to serve as a partner to my clients on their financial journey, understanding that finances can be a vulnerable, private, and overwhelming topic. My goal is help you to be wise with money so you can be equipped to serve your family and live generously!
At the heart of Thrivent are the values I share of faith, community, and generosity. In addition to my work for Thrivent members, I’m proud to serve on the events committee and active member at Fair Haven Christian Church and volunteer for Brown County Habitat for Humanity and The Salvation Army of Brown County. I enjoy being able to create a generous world view for my children, Rylee, Makynna, and Emersyn by involving them in serving our community through participation in Thrivent Action Teams and other generosity initiatives. My family loves Disney and my husband Adam and I also enjoy going on new outdoor adventures together. I am extremely proud of the hiking ministry he is starting in our community!

Greg has recently shifted to a new role, supporting our financial planning clients with analysis and helping to improve the quality and accuracy of our financial plans.
God has generously allowed my family and I to walk with Him in serving others through a variety of organizations. Here are a few of my favorites:
Transformational Living Ministries provides sober living houses centered on doing life together with Christ and one another. https://www.transformationallivingministries.com/
Clarity provides hope, education, restoration, sonograms, and much more.
Beloved provides backpacks filled with age appropriate needs for children navigating the foster care system. "Be filled. Be carried."

I help people use their resources, gifts, and passions not only to reach their goals, but to think bigger and create a greater impact.
My focus is on providing holistic financial guidance, leading with the heart of a teacher every step of the way. Through comprehensive planning, a range of investment approaches, and thoughtfully selected strategies, I help bring clarity and structure to your financial life.
As a financial advisor I am passionate about helping people do more with that they have been given.
I prefer to lead with a comprehensive financial plan which then guides specific decisions. Because I believe in this approach and that everyone deserves a financial plan, I begin every potential client relationship without any fee or obligation, holding several meetings together to complete a basic financial review which results in strategy level recommendations. From there it is up to the client if they would like to continue working together in one of several ways.
