About

I help people nearing retirement and living in retirement make sense of the financial decisions that all start to come together at once. Investments are part of that, but so are taxes, retirement income, Social Security, Medicare, insurance, and the trade-offs that come with each decision. I work with clients who want advice that is thoughtful, coordinated, and grounded in the realities of retirement rather than generic rules of thumb.

My firm uses a flat-fee fiduciary model because I want the relationship to be transparent and aligned from the start. I provide ongoing financial planning and investment management, with a strong focus on tax efficiency and practical decision-making. Much of the value comes from helping clients think through things like withdrawal strategies, Roth conversions, Social Security timing, Medicare-related tax issues, and how to fit all of that into a sustainable long-term plan. Tax preparation is also available for a separate fee through my separate tax firm under common ownership, which can help create a more coordinated planning process where appropriate.

As a person, I tend to bring a calm, straightforward style to my work. I am not interested in making things sound more complicated than they need to be. I want clients to feel informed, organized, and confident that their plan is being looked after with care and attention.

Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor.

We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
