Experience
Financial Advisor at Wells Fargo Advisors
July 2013 - June 2014 (1 year)
My practice consists of providing comprehensive wealth management to my clients. This includes
concerning myself with the asset and the liability side of the balance sheet. I run an investment plan for every
client in addition for designing a customized asset allocation that helps ensure they don't outlive their wealth.
Client's can track where they are in relation to the plan on a monthly basis. With the eventual rise in interests
rates and tapering of the stimulus to the market, it's important to understand how this will affect the equity
and fixed income areas of the market.
Fee's are something that are ambiguous to clients, as many fees are hidden inside of 401k's or mutual funds. I
explain to my clients what fee they pay and what they get for that fee.
I also provide education and strategies to my clients in such areas as Health Care, Medicare, and Social
Security.

Financial Advisor at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management
August 2011 - July 2013 (2 years)
I work with affluent pre-retirees and retirees as they make the transition from the accumulation phase to the
distribution phase of their lives. It is critical that I help my clients develop a wealth preservation plan and a
transfer strategy that ensures their assets are passed on to the next generation in the most efficient way. In a
rising tax environment it's important to use tax-efficient strategies in a client's portfolio.
In addition, I use securities based lending in my practice with business owners, real estate developers &
investors, and others who are seeking a better way to obtain lines of credit without the high fees and hassle

with the banks. Also the terms are flexible which means no payments are required every month. It's
important for me to look at my client's liabilities and I usually find he/she is paying high interest rates for
lines of credit.

Medicare Supplement/Advantage & Prescription Drug (Part D) Advisor at Mutual of Omaha
February 2011 - August 2011 (7 months)
I worked with seniors ages 65 + on Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage, and prescription drug
(Medicare Part D) strategies that helped them reduce their liabilities in the future. I help client's understand
the Medicare Part A, B, C, & D, and what their costs/benefits are under each part. Client's who were still
employed or retired would normally save money and increase benefits by switching from a group plan to a
Medicare policy.
