Dan embodies excellence when it comes to his profession. He exercises great patience and optimism during advisor meetings, and has a vast wealth of knowledge about the financial planning world. He has helped my wife and I get the maximum output from each dollar in our various accounts. I always leave meetings with Dan feelings reassured that my finances are in the best possible position.

Dan has been an incredible advisor and mentor to me for many years now. He knows how to thread "coaching", "mentoring", "advising" and "prodding" in the right measure, with the occasional "telling" when necessary to insure my personal success. Personable and a good listener + skilled in his trade. There's no way I would be as comfortable as I am with my financial portfolio without him.

Dan has been a great resource for help, assistance and information, and he has also been a great support to help me work through tough times. He's guided me about important decisions, but he's also been willing to hear me out when I might want to consider a different path or different decisions, to allow for good conversations. He has walked along side me and I am now better educated in how to move forward.

Dan has been extremely helpful in educating and guiding me through my husband's retirement process and later through the necessary steps after hus death. He is available through email and by phone whenever we had questions. My husband's retirement was complicated (involving government, military and railroad retirement), but Dan was patient with us and took the time to learn about anything he had not worked with previously. Our investments continue to grow.

We worked with Dan both times we’ve been at Fort Riley. He knows the numbers and all financial areas you need advising in. We’re sad to be moving, but we’re happy our finances are in the best place. Dan’s been the best out of all our 1st Command advisors!
