I served 14 years in the United States Navy as a Hospital Corpsman before medically retiring in 2024. Throughout my military career, I developed an interest in personal finance, particularly the financial challenges service members and their families encounter during military service and the transition to civilian life. My professional experience includes serving as a Command Financial Specialist in the Navy and providing financial counseling to service members and their families at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point.
Today, I serve as an accredited Veterans Services Officer with Carteret County Government in North Carolina, helping veterans and their families understand and navigate VA benefits. I believe financial education should be accessible, practical, and grounded in each person’s circumstances. Military service can shape a family’s financial life long after separation, and veterans benefits deserve consideration alongside traditional financial planning topics.
My approach begins with listening, understanding what matters to the individual, and helping them make informed decisions. Whether discussing financial challenges or navigating veterans benefits, I believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
