Carrie holds a JD from the University of Missouri (1994) and a BA in Economics from Washington University in St. Louis (1991), providing her with a strong foundation in both law and finance.

Phillip is an Army combat veteran, where he spent years leading individuals in a high pace setting. Once his service was completed, he graduated in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of Missouri and got right into the financial industry.

After nearly a decade working on the portfolio management team of a Kansas City-based RIA, his time there left him with extensive operational experience and a deep appreciation for research-based decision making. Austin and the rest of the investment management team are tasked with the design, implementation, monitoring, and improvement of the firm’s investment strategies.
A proud alumnus of Benedictine College, Austin’s formal education centered on accounting, finance, and economics. After graduation, he worked toward earning the CFA and CMT charters, both of which he received in 2019. The Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA) designation is a globally recognized, graduate-level credential that provides the strongest foundation in advanced investment, analysis, and real-world portfolio management skills. Earning the Chartered Market Technician® (CMT) designation demonstrates mastery of a core body of knowledge of investment risk in portfolio management and is the preeminent designation for practitioners of technical analysis worldwide.
Austin and his wife Anne enjoy hiking, skiing and watching Chiefs football – though they don’t have much time for hobbies these days while chasing around their four children.
