Building a Plan from Your Priorities

Growing up in Wayne, Nebraska, Eric learned the values of a strong Midwestern work ethic and a long term, conservative approach to money. After studying both finance and communications in his undergraduate studies, he realized the importance of financial literacy for folks working towards long-term goals. A passionate advocate of education, he obtained his MBA while working full-time and works hard to not only stay educated about important factors in financial planning, but to always be a better teacher and guide to his clients as they work towards attaining peace with their finances. Because of this, Eric has great respect for Dave Ramsey and his track record of helping folks get out of debt and create a better relationship with their giving, saving, and spending. He is a member of the SmartVestor Program and has taken and facilitated classes at Financial Peace University.

Eric is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner and holds his Series 7, Series 66, Insurance, Annuity, Long Term Care, and Disability licenses and is an independent, registered representative with Raymond James Financial Services, Inc., Member FINRA/SIPC.

Life is not meant to be lived for money, but with it! Eric enjoys spending time with his family and friends, cheering on the Huskers, and appreciates the many delicious restaurants that Omaha has to offer. When he wants to take a break from numbers, he also enjoys experimenting in the kitchen and making the best sounds he can on his guitar.
