 Today, if you would allow me, It will be my honor and privilege to serve as your probate-related concierge service go-to person and your travel companion as you embark in your life transition and probate journey.  My goal is to guide you through and lead you to a better place as you navigate through the many twists, turns, and treacherous path ahead.  My promise to you, I will conduct business and treat you with the at most empathy, integrity, and professionalism, just the same way I handle all of my other businesses.  At the end of our journey, If I have succeeded, I hope to have earned the title of friend to you to add to my existing collection.

I am a retired actuary with an actuarial career that spanned over 25 years in retirement/pension consulting and financial reporting.  I am fortunate and privileged to have retired at age 50 and join the FIRE (Financially Independent Retired Early) community.  Now a big part of my time and energy is devoted to continue building and developing a locally, community-based, service-oriented team to providing the highest quality of services to those with probate related needs.
