in markets, the firm builds and implements strategies to help clients pursue higher expected returns. An enduring philosophy, strong client commitment, and deep working relationships with the academic community underpin Dimensional’s approach to investing and form the foundation for new strategies. As of December 31, 2022, Dimensional and its affiliates manage $584 billion in USD for investors worldwide.

I am a Vice President and Regional Director in Dimensional Fund Advisors’ Global Client Group. I work closely with RIA’s to help them solve investment, client communication, and business strategy related challenges. Prior to joining Dimensional, I spent over a decade in leadership, technical, and business management roles at Northrop Grumman Corporation, a Fortune 500 engineering firm. A CFP® professional, I hold a BA from UCLA, an MBA from Claremont Graduate University, and an MS in business from the University of Southern California. Outside of work, I spend most of my time with my wife, Kristin, and our two children Andy (six) and Bar (three). I also try to get to my cabin outside of Yreka as often as possible.  

I have interacted with many hundreds of advisory firms during my time in the industry. What I have found is FPA members tend to put their clients first and focus on helping them meet their goals. I also love the FPA focus on advisor advocacy while supporting the community more broadly.
