With a career track that includes public accounting, controllership, insurance and financial services, Ken has spent thirty years helping people with their financial well-being. With a looming retirement crisis, his primary focus is educating clients on the institutional threats to surviving the retirement years, as well as employing strategies to protect their assets and create a lifetime stream of income.

With the worthy goal of sending their children to their “dream school”, many parents unfortunately raid their retirement funds to accomplish that. Ken’s goal is to make both a reality.
