My primary focus is to help my clients in developing and adhering to a financial strategy that will enable them to live an enjoyable, dignified, and comfortable retirement on their own terms. I listen closely to the specific goals and objectives of each client before recommending a solution based on their desired outcome. I became securities licensed in 2001 through NBC Securities, Inc., obtaining my Series 7, Series 65, and Series 63 designations; passing each exam on the initial attempt, whilst also managing the Private Client Services division for First American Bank;The solutions that are offered include investment vehicles such as: Rollover IRAs, 401(k) plans, SIMPLE/SEP IRAs, Traditional/Roth IRAs, Structured Certificates of Deposits, UITs, annuities, and College 529 Plans, long-term care, and traditional retail brokerage accounts. I have been in the financial services industry since 1993 with first decade as a Corporate Credit Analyst, then Commercial Banking Officer, and last Private Client Services Manager. Next as a Financial Consultant and Investment Advisor Representative with over 20 years experience, I have successfully guided clients through extremely challenging economic cycles, including the technology bubble bust and accounting scandals in early 2000's; the 9/11 terrorist attacks; the "Great Recession" in '08-'09; the Flash Crash in '10; the U.S. federal government credit rating downgrade in 2011; the United Kingdom's referendum on exiting the European Union in 2016- more commonly known as "Brexit"; and most recently the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020.
