He began his career in accounting and worked as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), in public accounting and private industry, for 30 years. In 2017, Paul joined Transamerica Financial Advisors where he now helps individuals, families and business owners achieve their financial goals and dreams.

Paul’s mission is to eradicate financial illiteracy (one client at a time), so that families can take control of their financial future, dream again, and create a better life for themselves and their children. Financial illiteracy is the #1 economic crisis in the world, which impacts more than 5 billion people across the planet.

Unlike the rest of the financial services industry, who overlook the majority of Americans, we serve these families by first teaching them how money really works and then helping them create the financial security and independence they deserve. To do this, Paul utilizes a comprehensive step-by-step planning approach that begins with a discussion of the client’s personal and professional GOALS and DREAMS, to provide them a financial roadmap (plan) for the future which aligns with their goals and dreams.

Paul and his wife Rebecca have a teenage daughter Michaela and a cat Mia. When Paul isn’t serving his clients, he can be found skiing, biking, hiking, working out or spending time with family and friends.
