  Partner/Senior Wealth Manager

  My two great passions in life are law enforcement and helping others, especially first responders, achieve their goals of financial health and freedom. I began the transition from my first passion to the second in 2019. As a wealth manager at Serve & Protect Financial Texas I have the great pleasure to help my fellow first responders with their financial and retirement planning.
