My life pursuit is to never stop growing and improving myself as with the lives of others I'm connected with. I'm grateful to have a profession that allows me to directly influence individual lives for the better while giving me a purpose of self fulfillment. Outside of being a Financial Advisor, I'm heavily involved within the fitness/Crossfit and Golf community. These passions shape my identity in leadership, discipline, and attitude; important attributes to my client relationships.
I joined Bank of America in October of 2017, and have over 18 years of investment, credit and banking experience supporting the needs of high net worth individuals and their families. I provide wealth management services to help clients navigate the intricacies of investment management, estate planning strategies, and wealth preservation. I'm a CFP®, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certificant, a designation awarded by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc. I also deliver credit solutions across various channels including business, philanthropic, and residential and commercial lending.
My dog and I are a Therapy Dog Team with the Children's Hospital Los Angeles Amerman Family Foundation Dog Therapy Program. I'm also a certified Therapy Dog handler for Pet Partners; the largest and most prestigious non-profit registering therapy dogs and other therapy animal pets. I teach financial literacy classes at Los Angeles Unified School District Schools and also volunteer with career development speeches in the inner city.
In my spare time I'm an avid golfer, enjoy Olympic weightlifting and competing in Crossfit®, Corgi dog ownership, traveling internationally, skiing, and watching sports; especially football.
I hold a CrossFit® L-2 Certification and have a passion for coaching others in physical training, nutrition, and recovery.
My mission, first and foremost, is to understand you and what matters most to you. Armed with that information I can ask thoughtful questions -- listening carefully, then understanding in detail where your wealth stands today and where you'd like it to be tomorrow. I help you design and implement a personalized plan intended to help you and your family pursue financial goals while helping manage investment risk. My approach is to focus on potential solutions that can help turn goals into reality.
