A Wealth of Experience

I have worked as a customer service representative for a mutual fund company, a stockbroker, a loan officer, a life insurance agent, a financial planner, and an income tax preparer. My 25 years of experience allow me to analyze all aspects of your finances and how they impact each other. I can also help you with budgeting and cleaning up your credit if necessary. I decided to start my own company because it enables me to handle all aspects of your finances. This way, no one can tell me that I can’t do certain things for you because they don’t offer that service. I now provide a full range of services that encompass all types of financial circumstances. 

My Approach

  • I take a very holistic approach to financial planning. I will never use high-pressure tactics to get you to accept my recommendations, and I will only use the products and services that are genuinely necessary to reach your financial goals. The first step I always take is to schedule a fact-finding session where you tell me where you are financially and where you want to go. I will then take this information and create a plan that I will outline for you in our next meeting. Once we have agreed on a course of action, we will take the necessary steps to implement your plan. And in many cases, we can do the whole process remotely if necessary.

  • I can also turn your liquid retirement savings into guaranteed streams of income that will last you for the rest of your life, even if you completely exhaust your principal. And you can do this on a tax-deferred basis, even if your money isn’t currently inside an IRA or employer-sponsored retirement plan. But if you are looking for growth instead of income, I can help you to get a superior rate of return without risking your money in the markets. This can be done on a tax-deferred basis as well.

  • I can help you to prepare for eventualities such as long-term care or disability by using vehicles that are specifically designed to cover these conditions. Many conventional long-term care insurance policies pay nothing in return if you end up not needing care, which means that you could be wasting thousands of dollars and get nothing to show for it. I can show you alternatives that guarantee you’ll get your money back one way or another, regardless of whether you end up needing care or not.
  • My experience as a stockbroker and financial planner enables me to review your investment portfolio and find out whether you are taking the right types and amounts of risk with your money. In many cases I may be able to show you better alternatives for your hard-earned savings that have less risk.

My Philosophy

My view of money is strictly biblical. Money can’t make you happy or fulfill you, but not having enough of it when you retire can present major problems. I believe in making your money grow without risking it in the markets. This way you can count on your money being there when you need it most.
