About

For more than 30 years, I have provided seasoned financial guidance and solutions to individuals and families across the nation and abroad. I've built an advisory practice that doesn't sell products or require investments to manage – I provide straightforward guidance to help people make the most of their life and their money. Working exclusively as a fee-only fiduciary, I’m proud to be included in the select group of professionals that put client interests first – the way that it should be. My conflict-free approach is about providing answers to your questions… solutions to your challenges… and exploring the possibilities to make life more.

I approach personal finances in a comprehensive manner addressing retirement, investments, taxes, cash flow, risk management, estate preservation and anything else that impacts one’s financial life. I help to sort through the information, misinformation, and confusion to help you make informed decisions. My role is to help you define the direction of your journey and achieve milestones, suggest changes in course when needed, and provide support for everything that life brings your way.

I value continuing education and have attained the following professional designations: Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®), Chartered Federal Employee Benefits Consultant (ChFEBCSM), Certified Retirement Counselor (CRC®), and Chartered Retirement Plans Specialist (CRPS®). In addition, I am a licensed tax advisor who provides proactive tax planning and strategies.

The foundation of a better advisory experience is achievable with integrated strategies to help you build, protect, and carry on what's important. I call it commitment. You'll call it peace of mind.

I offer a no-charge, no-obligation introductory consultation to determine if I’m in a position to help you and we're a good fit.
