My back ground in the Insurance and Financial Planning arena began in 1985. In order to be the best advisor for my clients I have felt education was most important. My study in this discipline was through many different venues along with the required continuing education. Most notably was my involvement in the American College in Bryn Mawr, PA. Through the College I have obtained through 100’s of
hours of studies the designations of:
