Trust, Honesty, Commitment and Communication: these are the foundations that Doug has built his investment practice on and are core values that he brings to his partnerships with his clients. While nobody can predict the future or know how markets will perform with certainty, Doug works with clients to allocate a portfolio that provides diversification into various investment styles within the marketplace that work toward long-term success. He keeps an open line of communication while building and managing portfolios, because he believes that if he can help clients better understand their money and help reduce their financial stresses, then he has made a difference in their lives. Having that opportunity is what makes his career so enjoyable and rewarding.
Doug graduated from Illinois State University with BS in Business Marketing and later earned the Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor™ designation. He lives in Effingham, Illinois, with his wife, Michelle, and their two sons, Nathan and Ryan. Doug enjoys spending time with his family, playing golf, pickleball, and cards when outside the office.
