How I Help…

I love to educate corporations on how to make their plans more efficient and cost effective. Many times, a small change to a plan will make a huge difference in the amount of the participants account balance at retirement.

MEET BILL
"I have been called an extraverts extravert and a retirement plan geek. My career has given me the opportunity to meet new people and help them with their qualified retirement plans. The old adage of doing what you love for a career and you will never work a day in your life fits me perfectly. Clients become friends."
