Kraig brings 31 years of experience to his role as a Partner and Private Wealth Advisor at Crossvine, a Northwestern Mutual Private Client Group. He began his career in 1994, immediately after earning his B.B.A. in Business from Baylor University, and has since built an enduring, trusted practice rooted in protecting families, building wealth with purpose, and fostering lasting relationships.
Kraig helps clients navigate both sides of the financial equation—risk and growth—through life insurance and investment strategies reflecting their lives' full arc. He holds RICP® and CLU® designations and is a longtime qualifier for the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT), reflecting his consistency and excellence. A frequent speaker at advisor events, Kraig is known for mentoring with heart and humor, bringing decades of wisdom to conversations that blend numbers and nuance.
His partnership with Crossvine is a natural next step—allowing him to provide the same trusted guidance with an even broader set of tools and expertise behind him. His clients continue to receive the care they’ve always known, now supported by a team that shares his personal, people-first approach to financial planning.
When he’s not working with clients, Kraig enjoys life with his wife, Carrie, their adult children, Caroline and Brody, and their two sometimes-very-good Bernedoodles. He’s a people person to his core—always up for a chat, a laugh, or a well-timed joke to brighten someone’s day. From travel to tee time to family time, Kraig brings warmth, integrity, and a joy that feels as genuine as it is effortless. He and Carrie have served in youth and young adult ministries at their church and support Compassion International—a cause close to their hearts.
