I grew up in the bay area of California near San Francisco in a very middle class home and after graduating high school in 1978 college was not really an option for me. Therefore I went to a trade school and became a commercial diver. After graduating from the Coastal School of Deep Sea Diving in Oakland California I went to work in the offshore oilfields in the Gulf of Mexico. What a blast that was!

Although I loved the work, by the mid 1980’s there was not much of it to be found due to a bogus “oil shortage”. Still in my mid 20’s I moved back to California to see if I could find something else to do with my life. After spending four months in Yosemite National Park I joined the Army and became a K-9 handler, training and working with patrol dogs, which was a lot of fun. I spent 9 years with Uncle Sam, right into “Desert Shield” and then “Desert Storm”. Although I had a lot of fun in the Army, my daughter was born in ’93 and I realized God had a more important mission planned for my life. I’ve always said “If you want to make God laugh, just tell Him your plans”.

After leaving the Army and returning to California I began working as a welder by day and college student at night, I majored in business management and economics which led me into the financial markets and working as a stock broker. After a few years of that stressful world I entered the insurance industry where I’ve been able to help people protect their families with effective financial products as well as help a few others find a new career path and a way to work for themselves from home. Coaching others to financial freedom has become a passion of mine.

My priorities in life are God, my family, friends and helping others any chance I get.

I thank you again for visiting my site and I hope that we may be able to work together.
