Who you’re working with
Some might say I’m overeducated, but I would argue there’s no such thing unless you’ve failed to put that education to work. Which I did in consumer electronics, aerospace, retail, video games, and defense.
I worked on products and businesses that never launched all the way to those that billions of people know, love, and use every day. Through it all I was always looking to be more involved in the business itself. To influence the strategy and shape our collective future.
Often at the expense of my present.
Until I finally decided that something had to give. Life is too short for the corporate life to be all there is. That brings me to the here and now, and to you.
Which raises the questions: Why attorneys? Why independent financial advisors?
Because they know exactly what it is to be excellent at what they do … to the point where that excellence voraciously demands everything they have and more. While they’re learning to be awesome, nobody stops to also teach them how to scale that awesomeness … how to monetize their success for a livable future. And the result is a future that often comes at the cost of the present … which is familiar territory.
Serving attorneys and advisors might seem fairly obvious, given what I’ve shared. It took me a while to accept the obvious, of course. But it was obvious nonetheless.
The good stuff
I am one of those people with too many interests and not enough time to pursue them.
My time is almost entirely spent with my family. We all share a love of the outdoors which inevitably leads to photography of landscapes and wildlife (which you’ll find on this website), and rock climbing with my son. There’s more, but why not leave something to the imagination?
