A Note from our Executive Director.
I have been in the financial and insurance industry since 1990 and began my career while pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Business Management.
For the last 30 years, I have embraced further education by obtaining a Securities trade registration, and further education with a bachelor's degree in economics and finance from Cambridge.
My family has been here in NWFL for over 45 years. Yes, I am a native. My family helped establish the original W-W Medical Center and the Fort Walton Beach Hospital.
My two most notable professional accomplishments have been, first, the ability to help many clients create and protect their wealth and provide them income when they or their family needed it; and secondly, to establish CornerStone Financial while maintaining sound financial and Christian principles.
Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions.
