Injury Settlement and Disability Financial Planning

I know because I lived it
There are many financial advisors who understand wealth management — but few have experienced the financial upheaval that comes with a sudden disability. I have.
If you’re looking for someone who not only knows the financial side of disability but truly understands it on a personal level, then welcome to the family.
My Story
In 2020, on a dirt bike trip with my two oldest sons and close friends, I struck a hidden rock in a dark desert wash, breaking my neck and becoming a C6 complete quadriplegic. The road since has been challenging, marked by ongoing struggles to accept our new reality, but my family and I continue to push forward the best we can. Drawing from our own experiences, we aim to lighten the financial load for others enduring similar life-altering tragedies.
