Investment Advisor Representative*

I have experienced events in my life that led me into the business providing Financial Advice. I watched my father lose his job to the economic downturn of the 1970’s. I saw first hand how important it was to be prepared for whatever life throws at you – both the good and bad. The fact that my parents were prepared financially and did not let emotions change their plan enabled them to successfully navigate their family, which included myself and three brothers. It was through that difficult time and in dealing with adversity that gets me out of bed each morning and excited about helping others.

Often emotions get in the way of making the best decisions. I work with individuals to help them make financial decisions that will affect every aspect of their life, from growing their nest egg, to creating retirement income, to planning for their kids and grandkids, to managing for their financial longevity, and to their charitable giving. In other words, work to increase their net worth and reduce their worry, but ultimately provide them peace of mind and the ability to focus on what matters to them.

The Financial Services Space is one like everything else around us is ever changing. On top of an overabundance amount of complex products, services and companies competing for your time and demand, the choices are infinite. My clients rely upon me to stay up to date with the best in class offerings and bring to them a simplified approach to not only the current changes but to serve in their best interest on future areas of opportunity and concern.

It is through our experiences in life and within the professional world which allow us to grow and gain our expertise. I have navigated a diverse background of roles in my 29+ Years within the Financial Services Industry. It is through these experiences, roles and relationships that I bring a full network and array of disciplines that allow me to be an expert in a number of specialties within my profession.
