Location Mount Union, Central PA, United States
Introduction I am a US Navy Submarine Veteran. I attended the University of South Carolina for Engineering, and served as nuclear chemist in the Submarine force. After leaving the Navy, I worked at Three Mile Island in Health Physics. I became Assistant Site Coordinator at Peach Bottom Atomic Station for Health Physics. I departed the Nuclear Industry in 1985 to enter the financial service industry, where I had been training part-time. I started as a commissioned sales broker, became a manager, and eventually a consultant to other financial advisors nationwide. I founded American Assets Financial Corporation, which provided consulting advice to thousands of financial professionals in the US. I have served on boards at the highest levels of the insurance industry and served as Vice-Chairman of a national securities firm, Investors Capital Holdings (Symbol ICH) near Boston MA.. In late 1998, I began steps to leave the securities industry to form my own private wealth management firm to provide specialized wealth management not only to High Net Worth individuals, but offer the same style and management content to the average financial consumer.
