Biography


I have seen first-hand how sound financial advice can really make a difference in someone’s life.  This is true for someone who may have a negative balance sheet or a surplus in the tens of millions. At some common level, we are all just trying to make the best decisions possible for our families, friends, communities, and ourselves. One of my great joys in life is helping someone achieve that empowering "aha" moment about their relationship with their finances.  THESE CORE BELIEFS SHAPE MY PRACTICE:  Debt is hard.  Assets are soft. Minimizing and using debt wisely can build or protect net worth, but too much debt is concerning.   Small decisions in your 30’s and 40’s and even 50’s add up over time.  Big decisions in your 60’s and beyond can make a critical difference in your retirement.   Invest in a well-diversified low cost portfolio and leave it alone (except for occasional rebalancing.)
