I didn't stumble into financial planning. I was drawn to it by a small inheritance, a paperboy route, and a widow who needed help balancing her checkbook. After two decades across multiple firms — seeing the conflicts, the minimums, the overlooked clients — I knew there was a better way. So, I built it. I started Your Path because I believe every generation deserves access to real, honest, planning-first financial guidance — not just those who already have wealth. Your Path exists because I believe planning should come first, not products. Because the best advice is given by someone who is legally and ethically on your side.
