My decision to become a fee-only fiduciary financial advisor is deeply personal. Growing up, I watched my parents be sold high-commission products that weren't right for them – solutions that came with hidden costs and limited benefits. That experience taught me how damaging conflicts of interest can be, and it sparked my commitment to offering advice that is 100% client-first. As a fee-only fiduciary, I don't earn commissions or kickbacks from financial products. My only source of compensation is the transparent fee my clients pay me, which keeps the focus where it belongs: on their goals, their families, and their financial well-being. With less than 3% of financial professionals working under this model, I'm proud to stand apart and live by a fiduciary oath that ensures trust is never compromised.
