My Background
As a fourth-generation Floridian, my ties to this state are deeply personal. I grew up in Lakeland and pursued higher education at the University of South Florida in Tampa, followed by George Washington University, and Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. My career spans museums, healthcare, research, and business, all of which inform my guardianship work.
Working in history museums and at the National Archives instilled in me a meticulous approach, and a commitment to preservation. My research career developed my computer and analytical skills, while my healthcare experience provided a foundation for compassionate care and patient advocacy. Over the past 25 years, managing three clinics sharpened my abilities in financial and care coordination.
As a professional guardian and fiduciary, I bring these experiences together to serve my clients and their families with the utmost integrity and respect. My focus is on their well-being and financial security, driven by a mission to protect and enhance their lives with compassion and dedication.
My Commitment
I pride myself on maintaining the highest ethical standards, transparency, and accountability in all my interactions. My client-centered approach ensures that you and your family receive the guidance, support, and advocacy needed to navigate life’s challenges effectively.
