He worked in corporate accounting for a number of years. Beginning in 2004, Tim entered the financial services industry, working for a bank, a discount brokerage firm, and a full-service broker who all used commission-based fee schedules. During those years, Tim discovered that his interests lie in planning, not sales.
Tim puts to use his experience and professional credentials in the financial services and investment management industry by helping pre-retirees and those already retired plan, organize, map and manage their financial futures.
As the firm has grown and more awareness has come to the fee-only model, Tim has put together a savvy, like-minded team to assist and enhance the financial planning and investment management experience. He has set a company culture of excellent service, great value and genuine caring.
As a Certified Financial Planner™, Tim has met rigorous certification requirements, including initial and continuing education, examination, and experience standards, and has agreed to adhere to a strict code of ethics and practice standards.
