I love St Louis (go Cards!) but seeking tech instruction there may be like ordering seafood in Oklahoma; chances are slim you're going to get something fresh and you (most likely) want to get your money's worth.
There very well may be a tech instructor in Missouri as @Dark Wolf indicates but I think it would be prudent to check on how frequently he/she conducts their own technical dives in the environment you intend to dive.
I could be dead wrong and you find an instructor that is able to afford frequent trips to technical waters. Just suggesting that expanding your search horizons may be useful.

John Mueller in Oronogo used to teach through trimix. It has been a year or so since I have spoken to him, so unsure if he has retired or not.
Chuck Russell still trains, I believe. Last I knew, he was down around Neosho.
If you know any of the OCDA divers, they may be of help.
I have been meaning to call John, so I will try to do that soon and will report back.
I will see what I can find out about Chuck, as well.
I have only met one of the current OCDA guys, but will see what I can find out.
I agree with Nothing Clever, and making sure you are both a good fit. Will be looking forward to following your journey.
