I’m a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and Personal Financial Specialist (PFS) with over 35 years of experience in estate planning, taxes, insurance, retirement and investments.
As a PFS, I provide independent integrated financial planning as an Investment Adviser Representative of CGO Consulting LLC. I have no conflicts of interest, and I do not manage assets or sell products.
I’m a fiduciary and saving clients’ money is what makes me tick.
My basic philosophy is straightforward. I want people to live the best life they can with the money they have.
My holistic approach to planning includes:
Managing cashflow
Tax planning
Investment strategies
Asset protection, including insurance needs
Retirement planning
Estate planning
I also prepare tax returns, including trusts, estates and gift returns.
My career began with Arthur Andersen. I subsequently worked with KPMG throughout Australia before settling in the Washington, DC area. I was a Director with KPMG before starting my own company.
I was born in San Francisco and have and will continue to travel extensively throughout the world. I lived in Australia for eight years and have two grown children.
When I’m not working, I enjoy running, sports, reading, watching movies and partaking in the rich variety of arts offered in the DC area and around the world.
