At Ahead Full Wealth, we help people who’ve built a good life feel confident they’re making the most of it, financially and otherwise. We serve those who’ve quietly crossed significant milestones: a military retirement, a solid government pension, a seven-figure portfolio. They’ve done well but wonder if there’s more they could be doing. We step in with clear, strategic advice that fits their real life—focused on what matters most, not just what’s possible. As a fee-only planner based in North Kingstown, Rhode Island, I work closely with mid- to late-career military families, educators, and government professionals. These clients often juggle complex benefits, career shifts, and big family decisions. My job is to simplify those moving parts, bring structure to the chaos, and help align their money with the life they want to lead—today and in the years ahead. Ahead Full was built to offer deeply personal planning, the kind that evolves with you. Our process helps clients get clear on their goals, navigate tradeoffs, and make confident decisions with their finances. Whether we’re managing investments, modeling a Roth conversion strategy, or choosing the right survivor benefit plan, we’re here to guide with intention and care. In October 2024, we joined APFORIA, LTD as a tenant firm. This partnership expands our capabilities while preserving our independent voice and close-knit approach. We’re still Ahead Full—just with a little more wind in our sails. I bring experience as a military leader, educator, business owner, and planner. I know how life can pull in a hundred directions. And I know how good it feels to regain your bearings. That’s the work I love: helping people steer with purpose and move forward, full ahead.
