General Agent
As a young boy, I would listen to my Dad talk about his business at the dinner table. At the time, I could not fully grasp the importance of the work he was doing. Only after graduating from Stephen F. Austin State University, getting married, and owning Synergy Fitness, did I begin to understand that having a moderate and sensible approach for one’s “financial health and fitness” is just as important as physical fitness.
After 10 years in the business, I am still motivated by the desire to help my clients achieve their financial goals with the hands-on attention that sets Rex Financial Group apart. I am excited to continue my father’s legacy of serving our friends and family with honesty, loyalty and integrity.
I am an amateur cook and organic gardener, moderately successful deer hunter and expert fantasy footballer. I am a licensed insurance agent in the State of Texas and Louisiana.

General Agent
I have been in the business for more than 15 years. I started in this industry when I retired from education, where I had been a teacher, coach and administrator for 33 years. At retirement, I visited with Jim Rex, and he showed me how to get the most out of my TRS benefits. My goal is to help other teachers and any retiree in the same way that Jim helped me.
I am a graduate of Stephen F. Austin State University with a bachelor’s (1967) and a master’s degree. I also hold a mid-management degree in education and I am a licensed insurance agent in the state of Texas.
My favorite activities are enjoying my family: my wife, son and daughter-in-law, daughter and son-in-law and six grandchildren ranging in age from 9 to 18 years old. I enjoy hunting, fishing, farming, and most any outdoor activity.
