Financial Advisor Overview

After several decades of growing my business and building a loyal, dedicated customer base, my key corporate clients were acquired or moved in a short few years. I took a multi-year career break in 2014. However, I continued to stay up-to-date with the industry and monitor the numerous changes.

Financial Advisor Experience

Early career: I began as a stock broker and employee benefits and insurance agent. I then became Vice President of Retirement Plans (11 years), where I built the Virginia Hospital Association's Employee Benefits Trust retirement programs for its members, traveling throughout the state. Mid-career: I left the VHA employee benefits program to start my own investment and employee benefits firm. I continued working with retirement plans (employer-contributary 403(B), 401(K), DB plans and ESOP's. I also expanded my investment offerings and began advising individual clients on financial matters and managing their investments. My 10-year affiliation with Commonwealth Financial Network played a key role in my development as a top-producing financial advisor. I consistently ranked in the top 5%-10% of advisors in production. I have no current client base and am new to Charlotte, NC, but I can also take over part of an advisor's book of business with minimal orientation or direction.
