Info: In 2005, I began my career in financial services. My interest in psychology allowed
me to work with investors and business owners to understand their financial goals. I
came to Edward Jones in 2013 because I understood their commitment to
goals-based advice for our clients.
As your Edward Jones financial advisor, I believe it's important to invest my time in
understanding what is important to you. We use an established, 5 Step Process to
build personalized strategies to help you reach your goals. I am proud to serve a
diverse group of clients. I help my clients develop a long-term, goals-based strategy,
whether their goals involve creating, spending, giving, protecting or transferring
wealth. I particularly enjoy working with families that seek to create
multi-generational wealth. I collaborate with my clients' accountants, attorneys and
other trusted professionals in order to create the most appropriate solution and help
them stay on track with their personal goals.

Info: With over 30 years in the financial services industry, I bring an innovative and results-oriented approach to promoting Arvest's commitment to the community. My focus areas include Financial Literacy Awareness and Health and Wellness for underserved communities in Greater Kansas City. By bridging the gap between the under-banked and the mainstream, I strive to make a tangible difference.

Driven by a passion for serving Greater Kansas City, I thrive on a "want to" spirit. I'm dedicated to making a meaningful impact by understanding clients on a personal level. My goal is to inspire change, provide financial solutions, and build lasting connections.

Info: Jordin, a Kansas City native, has always cherished her hometown and the vibrant community it offers. With a background in marketing and hospitality, her love for Champagne and all things sparkling became the driving force behind Blanc. A pivotal trip to Europe in 2022 reignited her passion for wine, inspiring her to create a space where the rich history and magic of a glass of bubbly can be celebrated every day. Jordin thrives on connecting with local entrepreneurs, who she believes are the backbone of Kansas City's thriving spirit. When she’s not at Blanc, she’s a dedicated mom to her child and two pups, finding joy in the little moments that make life sparkle.

Info: Originally from Kansas City, Jordan planted roots in Denver in 2017, feeling a sense of connection to the Rocky Mountains. Colorado quickly became the place where Jordan knew she could grow as both a creative and within her personal life. With a background as a special education professional, esthetician, and photographer, the pandemic allowed Jordan to slow down and re-engage with her creative, entrepreneurial spirit.

She felt a passion for acquiring permanent jewelry of her own and immediately saw the gap in the untapped industry as an opportunity to create something completely unique. With Jordan’s clear vision and strong conviction in people’s need for human connection, LINK x LOU was born. The brand has expanded to more than 65 markets across the country by way of organic, word-of-mouth marketing and Jordan remains the Founder & CEO.
