2022 Rockwall Veteran Business Alliance

Upon moving the TX to live close to family, I founded LaGrange Financial Group in 2019 in Rockwall.  I joined Murphy & Sylvest Wealth Management (Murphysylvest.com), a Registered Investment Adviser, in 2020.  I hold the Series 65, Investment Adviser Law License, General Lines (Life/Health) Insurance License in several states, and hold several Business and Emergency Management certifications (Project Management Professional, Six Sigma, FEMA Incident Command 300 & 400, etc.)   M&S's primary office is in Stone Tower, near the the Galleria Mall and I'm focused on growing our firm in the Rockwall area where Amy and I raise our three children.

I grew my company from two to 55 employees over 15 years, learning hard lessons along the way. I teach the tools and processes we used to save our business before ultimately selling to our biggest competitor. 

• EOS - Entrepreneurial Operating System™, based on the book "Traction" by Gino Wickman; ideal for companies with 10 - 250 employees and/or $5M - 300M in revenues; more afraid of the status quo than of change
• EAB - Entrepreneurial Advisory Board; ideal for sole proprietorships and small firms 1 - 5 employees and $500K - $5M in revenues

My family and I have lived in Rockwall Texas for 20+ years and this is our home. I truly believe in supporting local businesses, and local Nonprofits.
