Professional Details
I am a Retirement Strategist and Registered Social Security Analyst (RSSA) through the National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts (NARSSA). I work with individuals and families to help them understand Social Security benefits, Medicare options, estate-planning considerations, and life insurance as part of an integrated retirement strategy.
My focus is on education and clarity—helping people make informed decisions, avoid common planning mistakes, and better understand how their benefits and protection strategies work together. I frequently collaborate with other professionals to support long-term planning and legacy goals.
I am committed to professionalism, transparency, and serving the community through education and trusted relationships.

Widowed
If your spouse has passed away, you may be eligible for a survivor benefit. The extra money may be essential for you. Ask an RSSA® for details.
Single

As a self-employed person, you may be able to decrease your payroll taxes — yet still receive the maximum income from Social Security. Ask an RSSA® for details.

Social Security can provide valuable disability benefits if you qualify, but these benefits — and how you qualify for them — are often misunderstood. Ask an RSSA® for details.
