About me
How often do you find yourself in front of a challenge that looks unbeatable?
The easiest thing you could do is just call it quits.
Many people, especially young breadwinners just starting a family, do just this when it comes to their finances. They believe there’s still time for complicated decisions and often say: “I don’t have that money now. I must wait until I can earn more to secure my life goals and my family's future.”
I thought the same until life played a cruel trick on me. At 28 I was diagnosed with Multiple sclerosis (MS). Almost overnight I went from being perfectly healthy to being unable to use half of my body.
Up till that moment, I was very physically active and had dreamed of running a marathon. The doctor that diagnosed me said: “In five years you won't be able to walk.”
What did I do? I proved him wrong by managing to run a couple of half marathons and complete a triathlon.
I’m now a father of three boys. When I started thinking of securing their future, my financial advisor said: “No one will give you insurance, not with MS.”
What did I do? I proved him wrong. I spent months learning about personal finances and investigating possible alternatives that could fit my specific situation. I was so invested I even started working as a financial representative.
Lucky for me, I had the type of MS that could be covered, so in the end I managed to find a suitable solution even though I was previously told there was none.
I won't take no for an answer in my personal life nor my business life. If there is an alternative that would suit your specific situation, I will turn every stone to find it and help you achieve your life goals.
I’m especially passionate about working with young professionals and teaching them the fundamentals of financial literacy.
Don’t let one obstacle determine your destiny.

As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.
Beads of Courage
Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.
How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
