Tim grew up on a dairy farm in Greeley, Nebraska and attended Kearney State College. In 1983, Tim entered into the financial planning industry and never looked back. He specializes in Business Continuation and Estate Planning for closely-held corporations and businesses, with special expertise in Family-Farm and Ranch Planning.  He believes if people have an educated and knowledgeable professional to lead them through the process, they can get a plan together before it is needed.  Tim understands that most people know the answers, they just don’t know the questions, so by utilizing a planning process, he can help families and businesses organize their affairs to put a plan in place.

In his spare time, Tim enjoys coaching youth shooting sports. He has coached numerous youths in both middle and high school shooting programs in Grand Island as well as for 4H and the USA YESS (Youth Education in Shooting Sports) Program.

Tim met his wife Catherine, a Registered Nurse, in 1991 and together they have 2 children. Their son, Joseph, is currently attending Kansas University at Lawrence where he is a graduate student in the Microbiology Doctorate program.  Their daughter, Katelin, is attending Law school at the University of Nebraska Law College.
