  • MRA+10 retirement — your options and the penalty reduction strategy
  • Military service credit buyback — active duty time that may count toward your pension
  • Prior federal service deposit — crediting an earlier federal stint
  • TSP catch-up contributions — maximizing what's left of your working years
  • Coordinating private sector 401k or IRA built before federal service
Military & Veterans

Your Service Earned
More Than You Know.

Active duty service, VA ratings, and military retirement pay all interact with your federal benefits in ways most advisors miss. This is where we get it right.

Specialty Services

Protection Beyond
Your Pension

For those ready to address the risks your federal benefits don't cover — life insurance and long-term care, handled with the same depth and clarity.

🛡
Individual & Family

Life Insurance

Term, whole, or universal — I'll identify the right policy built around your income, your family, and your goals. Not a cookie-cutter plan. Yours.

🤝
Protection Planning

Long-Term Care

A long-term care event can cost $80,000–$150,000+ per year. I help you plan ahead so it doesn't wipe out everything you've built.

Why Work With Me

I don't sell plans.
I build yours.

Most people walk into retirement or buy a life policy without fully understanding what they have. I've made it my mission to change that — one conversation at a time.

I take the time to learn your situation, explain your options in plain language, and help you make decisions you feel genuinely confident about.
