Experience is said to be the best teacher. With over 35 years of experience, John has been at the forefront of helping clients achieve many important financial milestones in their lives.

John merged with Craig and Andrew in 2019 after an accomplished career at Northwestern Mutual. They all had a goal to expand upon the philosophy of creating a holistic financial planning practice utilizing extensive experience in life, disability, and long-term care insurance in conjunction with investment management.

Survivorship issues and retirement goals are so important, and the focus changes over people’s careers. John’s low-key, consultative style has helped many people over many years reach their financial goals. As he continues to help Tenpath Financial grow, he will be working with the many clients he has met and helped guide over his years in financial services.
