Most women who reach out to me are navigating something significant — a divorce, the loss of a spouse, or a retirement that's closer than it once seemed. With each of these scenarios there’s often a common question: "Will I be okay?"

That question is one I understand personally. I was raised by a single mother who went through a difficult divorce, and I watched her navigate financial decisions largely alone — without someone to sit with her, explain things clearly, and help her see that she was going to be okay. That experience shaped who I am and why I do this work.

As a former attorney, Certified Financial Planner®, and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®, I bring both legal fluency and financial experience to the women I serve. But what my clients tell me they value most isn't my credentials — it's that I ask thoughtful questions and actually listen.

My wife Rosie and I live in Bay Village, Ohio with our six children, I serve on the board of the Cleveland Zoological Society (Cleveland Metroparks Zoo), and am a member of the Estate Planning Council of Cleveland.
