Areas of Expertise
Here are my areas of expertise, which I will use to provide you with
customized recommendations that will help you plan for your financial future.
- Personal Needs Analysis
Financial security is often a major objective in each of our lives. How financial security is defined varies from family to family and individual to individual. Through a personal needs analysis, I will let you know where you stand relative to where you want to be, and provide you with specific solutions that can help make your goals a reality.
- Retirement Solutions
Longer life expectancies and early retirements make sound insurance and investment choices essential. I will help you prepare to enter your retirement years.
With an increasing number of choices and ever-changing tax laws, the Network offers me access to financial advisors and specialists I can call upon for recommendations and assistance. Pension plans, 401(k) and 403(b) plans, IRAs, Roth IRAs, mutual funds and annuities, as well as variable and portfolio-based life insurance are just some of the alternatives available to you.
- Estate Analysis
You work your whole life to build your estate. You should have control over what happens to it upon your death. Building a lasting legacy takes more than simply accumulating a large portfolio. You need a solution that remains flexible enough to allow you to maintain maximum control of your assets and enjoy them during your lifetime, while you prepare for the efficient transfer of those assets after you die.
- Business Needs Analysis
Business owners have special needs. I can help you anticipate those needs--whether they are executive bonus plans to attract and retain key executives, or insurance to protect you and your partners in the event of death or disability. I will work in cooperation with a team of specialists, including your own advisors, to help you develop a strategy that will accomplish your specific financial objectives.
- Charitable Giving
A charitable giving program benefits both donors and charities. Donors gain tax advantages and the satisfaction of knowing that their act of generosity will have a significant impact. Let me work with you to quantify what portion of your assets is available for charitable causes after taking into account your needs and your family's needs.
- Risk Management
Assets that take years to accumulate can be consumed in a fraction of the time after a breadwinner dies or when an individual requires specialized care on an extended basis. Whether you are looking for temporary protection, lifelong protection, an efficient transfer of assets through your estate, or cash value accumulation, my expertise in providing risk management solutions can help create a protection plan to fit your needs.
- Disability Income Insurance
Disability insurance protects one of your most valuable assets-your ability to earn an income. A disability could suspend or terminate your income for an extended period of time. It may force you to close your business. With my expertise in disability insurance, I am able to recommend disability insurance products from Northwestern Mutual.
- Education Funding
With the cost of higher education rising faster than the rate of inflation, many families wonder how to prepare for this expense. I specialize in education funding and can help you explore the best possible alternatives for saving the money you need to send your children to college.
- Investment Services
Without a coordinated investment strategy, it can be difficult to build an effective investment portfolio that helps meet your financial needs. As a Registered Representative of Northwestern Mutual Investment Services, LLC (NMIS), I can offer you access to a wide range of investment products and services. I will work with you to develop investment solutions aimed at meeting your financial objectives.
- Annuities
An annuity provides an income, payable at fixed or variable intervals, either immediately or at a future date. I can show you how you can use an annuity to secure a source of income for retirement to supplement your future financial needs.
- Long-Term Care Insurance
Offered through Northwestern Long Term Care Insurance Company
Long-Term Care insurance provides benefits in the event of a long-term illness or injury. Owning a long-term care insurance policy also provides you choices in deciding where or how you receive care. Let me help you prepare for this situation with long-term care insurance.
- Special Needs Planning
Planning for a dependent with special needs can be complicated. It is recommended that you work with a team of experts – including an attorney, a financial professional and a social service professional. As a key member to the special needs team, I provide solutions for families with special needs.
- Variable Products
If you are interested in variable products that allow you to direct your invested assets into a wide range of investment funds, as a Registered Representative of Northwestern Mutual Investment Services, LLC (NMIS), I can offer you variable annuities and variable life insurance.
- Wealth Accumulation
There are many financial vehicles into which portions of your income can flow. Picking the right combination is critical to wealth accumulation. Together, we can determine your financial goals, and provide specific risk protection and investment solutions.
