How We Do It
Many people believe that their financial well-being is linked solely to their ability to earn a high income. True financial independence, however, has much more to do with understanding and taking advantage of the finances you have. It's more about setting financial goals and learning to use financial strategies that will help you meet your objectives.
My goal as a Certified Financial Professional® is to help you plan for financial security. Whether your goals involve building wealth through investing, funding a child's college education, planning for a comfortable retirement, or protecting your estate, I can help you develop a roadmap to reach your goals and make wise decisions to help improve your financial situation.

Individual 401(k) Plan
- Broadridge Content
An individual 401(k) plan is really nothing more than a combined profit-sharing plan and 401(k) plan implemented by a self-employed individual or small business owner with no full-time employees (unless the full-time employee is the owner's spouse). These plans, which went into effect after passage of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (2001 Tax Act), can allow for significant tax-deferred contributions.
Pooled Income Fund
- Broadridge Content
A pooled income fund is a trust with both charitable and noncharitable beneficiaries. It is established and run by the charity, not by you. The pooled income fund operates much like a mutual fund. The charity "pools" the contributions of many people, invests the money, and then distributes to you (or your designated beneficiary) an annual payment prorated to match your contribution to the fund. When the noncharitable beneficiary dies, your remaining share in the fund passes to the charity. A pooled income fund works like this:
Traditional IRAs
- Broadridge Content
A traditional individual retirement account (IRA) is a personal savings plan that offers certain tax benefits to encourage retirement savings. Contributions to traditional IRAs are either tax deductible (the money goes into the IRA pre-tax) or nondeductible (you pay income tax on the money that goes into the IRA). Regardless of whether your contributions are tax deductible, amounts contributed to a traditional IRA grow tax deferred inside the IRA.

Section 179 of the Internal Revenue Code allows a sole proprietor, partnership, or corporation to elect to deduct the cost (up to $2,560,000 in 2026) of depreciable tangible personal property acquired for use in a trade or business in the year of purchase. In the absence of the Section 179 deduction, this cost would generally have to be recovered over several years through depreciation deductions.
