The next leg of my journey with Guardian brought me to Phoenix so that my family and I could be closer to our parents and extended family. At John Driscoll and Company, now a part of the Pacific Advisors family, I've continued to help clients in over 40 states with financial organization, protection planning, financial planning, and business planning.

An opportunity presented itself in the Pacific Northwest and I continued my career with Guardian and Park Avenue Securities in Seattle. My practice began to focus on medical professionals and business owners in Washington and throughout the country.

Seeing how my clients embraced the idea of virtual meetings early on, I decided that I could continue to work with all of my existing clients and relocate to San Diego.

After spending time abroad, I began my financial career with Guardian in my hometown working with my father. Following in my father's and my grandfather's footsteps, I immediately realized that I love helping clients with their financial security. Over the course of two years, I completely took over my father's business so that he could transition into retirement.
