Areas of Expertise
Here are my areas of expertise, which I will use to provide you with
customized recommendations that will help you plan for your financial future.
- Personal Needs Analysis
Financial security is often a major objective in each of our lives. How financial security is defined varies from family to family and individual to individual. Through a personal needs analysis, I will let you know where you stand relative to where you want to be, and provide you with specific solutions that can help make your goals a reality.
- Business Needs Analysis
Business owners have special needs. I can help you anticipate those needs--whether they are executive bonus plans to attract and retain key executives, or insurance to protect you and your partners in the event of death or disability. I will work in cooperation with a team of specialists, including your own advisors, to help you develop a strategy that will accomplish your specific financial objectives.
- Retirement Solutions
Longer life expectancies and early retirements make sound insurance and investment choices essential. I will help you prepare to enter your retirement years.
With an increasing number of choices and ever-changing tax laws, the Network offers me access to financial advisors and specialists I can call upon for recommendations and assistance. Pension plans, 401(k) and 403(b) plans, IRAs, Roth IRAs, mutual funds and annuities, as well as variable and portfolio-based life insurance are just some of the alternatives available to you.
- Estate Analysis
You work your whole life to build your estate. You should have control over what happens to it upon your death. Building a lasting legacy takes more than simply accumulating a large portfolio. You need a solution that remains flexible enough to allow you to maintain maximum control of your assets and enjoy them during your lifetime, while you prepare for the efficient transfer of those assets after you die.
- Risk Management
Assets that take years to accumulate can be consumed in a fraction of the time after a breadwinner dies or when an individual requires specialized care on an extended basis. Whether you are looking for temporary protection, lifelong protection, an efficient transfer of assets through your estate, or cash value accumulation, my expertise in providing risk management solutions can help create a protection plan to fit your needs.
- Life Insurance
Many people realize that they need life insurance. And, many people have opinions about what type of life insurance they prefer. I regularly help people determine how much life insurance they need and what types or combination of types of coverage are best suited to help them further their own objectives. A well constructed life insurance policy can be a valuable part of your overall financial security plan. I will help you look at this in the context of your overall portfolio and financial security plan and help you determine what makes the most sense for your particular situation.
- Long-Term Care Insurance
Offered through Northwestern Long Term Care Insurance Company
Long-Term Care insurance provides benefits in the event of a long-term illness or injury. Owning a long-term care insurance policy also provides you choices in deciding where or how you receive care. Let me help you prepare for this situation with long-term care insurance.
- Disability Income Insurance
Disability insurance protects one of your most valuable assets-your ability to earn an income. A disability could suspend or terminate your income for an extended period of time. It may force you to close your business. With my expertise in disability insurance, I am able to recommend disability insurance products from Northwestern Mutual.
- Disability Overhead Expense
If you were disabled and your business had to continue without you for awhile, how would the ongoing operating expenses be paid? Together we will review your business needs and determine how Disability Overhead Expense coverage can protect your business.
- Asset & Income Protection
Assets that take years to accumulate can be consumed in a fraction of the time after a breadwinner dies or when an individual requires specialized care on an extended basis. Life insurance policies are designed with different needs in mind. Whether you are looking for temporary protection, lifelong protection, an efficient transfer of assets through your estate, or cash value accumulation, my expertise in personal life insurance can help you protect what's important to you, secure your future and improve your life.
