During her first eight years at Edward Jones, Katie had the opportunity to work at both the St. Louis, MO and Tempe, AZ home office locations where she trained hundreds of financial advisors and branch teams throughout the country. After years of training financial advisors and watching them make a difference in their clients’ lives, Katie realized that a career as an Edward Jones financial advisor would bring her back to her passion of helping people in the most direct and impactful way.

Since 2014, Katie has used her counseling experience, empathy and empowerment skills to help individual investors and business owners achieve their goals. She also enjoys working with employers that offer 401(k), 403(b), Simple IRA or SEP IRA retirement plans to their employees.
