The Spark That Lit The Path

I’ll never forget the day I decided to take my financial future into my own hands. I was just 12 years old, living in a single-parent home with my mom and eight siblings. I watched her work relentlessly to keep us afloat—and I remember thinking, there has to be a better way.

One day, wearing my best suit and carrying my mom’s briefcase, I marched into a bank determined to get a mortgage and buy us a home. The banker’s face said it all. I didn’t know anything about loans, equity, or credit—but I knew I wanted to change our circumstances. That moment planted a seed: I would learn how money really worked—and use that knowledge to help families like mine.

By 16, I had left my first job at a grocery store—not because I couldn’t do it, but because I saw a ceiling I wasn’t willing to accept. I launched a small painting business and started knocking on doors. That drive—to create opportunity and deliver value—has guided every step since.

I’ve seen how everyday people get boxed out of real estate. I’ve watched families overpay for insurance they don’t understand. I’ve witnessed good people make poor financial choices—not because they’re careless, but because they’re uninformed or misled.

That’s what drives me today.
I help clients navigate decisions with clarity and confidence—integrating Mortgages, Insurance, Investments, and Legacy Planning into a strategy that aligns with their values, not just their income.

Because I believe wealth should be within reach—for everyone.

Where The Mission Began

Looking back, I know a lot of my drive came from how I was raised. Growing up in a single-parent household with eight siblings, we moved often—sometimes staying with friends or extended family just to get by. I saw firsthand how financial instability and lack of access to resources could limit even the most hardworking people.

But those experiences gave me something else, too: perspective. Empathy. And a deep belief that no one should feel left out of the wealth conversation. I’ve felt that frustration—like building wealth is for “other people”—and I’ve made it my mission to change that narrative.

Today, that mission is at the heart of everything I do. I’m here to make wealth accessible—not just for the privileged few, but for every person willing to move with intention. Whether I’m guiding a first-time homebuyer or helping a client map out their retirement and legacy, my approach remains the same:

✅ Transparent.
✅ Personalized.
✅ Focused on long-term clarity and confidence.

This work isn’t just about mortgages or insurance. It’s about transforming how people make decisions with money.

When a client reaches a financial milestone—or finally feels in control of their future—it reminds me why I started. This is more than a profession. It’s a calling.

Because your path to wealth isn’t out of reach. You just need someone in your corner who sees the full picture—and helps you build it on your terms.
