I’m truly excited and thankful for the trust placed in me to serve as Area Vice President and Director of Capital Advisors with Farmers National Company.

In my role as Area Vice President, I have the privilege of leading our farm team across one of the company’s most dynamic regions. Our focus is on fully supporting farmland owners through management, sales, and advisory services that enhance both profitability and long-term land value.

As Director of Capital Advisors, I will continue to guide the growth of our capital advisory platform, partnering with family offices, institutional investors, and individuals on farmland acquisitions, dispositions, and investment opportunities. This platform connects clients with strategic, often unique opportunities in farmland as a resilient and meaningful asset class.

Over the years, I’ve worked hard to build relationships, earn trust, and become a relevant source of guidance in the farmland space. I look forward to this next chapter—leading with clarity, drive, consistency, and fun—and continuing to deliver value for both landowners and investors.
