Many of the clients I work with choose me because I help them navigate their next stage of life. Whether you’re mindfully winding down your working years or being thrust into retirement ahead of schedule, I help you to design a lifestyle in retirement that feels comfortable with an investment strategy that supports it.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, I can help you find the best place to start. Whether it’s diversifying the company stock in your portfolio, creating an estate plan for your wife and kids, or figuring out Social Security and Medicare, I explain things simply and clearly so you not only feel confident, but you’re actually excited for your retirement years.
