Hi, I'm Tim! I grew up in Flint, Michigan, where I learned the value of hard work and commitment from a young age. My interest in finances began during my time in the Business and Finance office at Grand Valley State University, where I saw how thoughtful financial planning can make a real difference. That early experience sparked a career dedicated to helping families build and preserve their wealth. Joining LPL Financial and merging my practice with Growtrust Partners was a natural step to offer my clients even more resources and support.
A Passion for Education and Teamwork
Education has always been a cornerstone of my life. I earned my BSBA from Aquinas College and later completed my MBA at GVSU. Sports have also been a lifelong passion—whether coaching Little League or high school baseball, or being inducted into the Aquinas College Athletic Hall of Fame in 2015, athletics have taught me the value of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance.
These days, my wife, Karen, and I enjoy life in Caledonia, where we raised our sons, Matthew (Kelsi) and Ryan. We love spending time on the lake, hitting the golf course, and traveling together. The values I’ve learned with my family inspire how I approach my work—helping clients create thoughtful financial plans that set them up for the future.
