A four-step process, built around your situation.
Discovery, plan design, implementation, and ongoing review. The first conversation is no obligation. The pace is yours.
Discovery.
A first meeting to understand your goals, your concerns, and the decisions in front of you. No paperwork, no commitment. I listen more than I talk.
By the end, you'll know whether we're a fit. If not, I'll do my best to point you somewhere useful.
- Goals, priorities, and timeline
- Inventory of accounts, plans, and benefits
- Specific decisions you're weighing
- Questions you want answered before we go further
Design.
I take what you've shared and develop recommendations — retirement income, rollover analysis, asset allocation, insurance review, beneficiary alignment. Whatever the situation calls for.
You see the work. I explain the tradeoffs in plain English. You decide what to do.
- Retirement income projection across scenarios
- Rollover and pension election analysis
- Allocation review with risk capacity test
- Tax sequencing and Roth conversion windows
- Insurance and estate-document coordination
Implementation.
The paperwork. Account openings, transfers, beneficiary updates, rollover paperwork — handled carefully so you're not stitching it together yourself.
I coordinate with custodians, plan administrators, your CPA, and your estate attorney as needed.
- Account openings and transfers
- Rollover and direct-transfer paperwork
- Beneficiary and titling updates
- Coordination with your CPA and attorney
- Confirmation that everything posted correctly
Ongoing review.
Plans don't stay still. Markets move, tax law shifts, and life happens. We meet on a regular cadence and whenever something changes — a job, a sale, a family event.
The point isn't to react to every headline. It's to keep the plan honest with the life you're actually living.
- Annual full plan review
- Event-driven check-ins (retirement, sale, inheritance)
- Allocation rebalancing as markets move
- RMD and Social Security timing in the right years
- Beneficiary and estate-document refreshes

No obligation. Microsoft Teams works for most first meetings; in-person available across Houston.
