After graduating from the University of Kentucky in 1990, I enjoyed three decades as a clinical pharmacist facilitating high level patient centered care in various acute care hospitals and specialty home infusion centers. I left the world of healthcare to focus on the financial health of others. I especially enjoy financial planning with an eye toward tax efficient strategies to minimize tax burdens for estates and retirees. In my free time I enjoy tinkering with and driving antique Harleys and muscle cars; as well as traveling, hiking and fly fishing.

Portfolio Management
I build custom portfolios based on each clients projected needs, future goals, risk tolerances and time horizons. All of our portfolios are managed on an 'active' basis meaning we continuously monitor and make changes as deemed necessary and appropriate. |
Retirement Planning
I utilize a variety of no commission products designed to meet each client's specific overall retirement goals, including but not limited income generation and risk reduction. I analyze and recommend multiple tax efficient strategies including Roth conversions when appropriate. |
401K Rollovers
I examine each specific situation to see if a 401k to IRA rollover is appropriate based on the clients age, financial condition and needs. I will discuss the pros and cons of each conversion. When deemed advantageous, I will guide and manage the process from start to completion in a low stress tax free manner. |
Education Funding and Planning
While I do offer and mange ESA accounts for client's children and grandchildren, I believe that college funding should come from a variety of sources and I am happy to advise clients on how various "pieces of the pie" can be orchestrated to meet the overall objective. |
Wealth Management
I advise clients on multiple strategies geared toward not only efficient wealth management for this generation but also for the tax efficient transfer of wealth to future generations. |
Risk Management
I routinely evaluate and heavily incorporate a suite of "Buffered" funds that incorporate varying degrees of market downside protection, based on clients stated risk tolerance. I can build a portfolio that offers exposure to market appreciation for long term growth with hedged protection. |
