Counseling
The loss of permanent
employment is a major life stressor. Losses such as
financial security, self-esteem, self-identity,
and changes in relationships and
roles also occur. Coping with these
feelings can be overwhelming.
Know that you are not alone.
Experienced personal
advisors are available to BBJ members who need help
during this period of job transition (at no cost). All consultations are private
and confidential. BBJ also offers job counseling and alternate career
counseling to our members.

I entered the Financial Services industry in 1996 in Wichita, KS after six
years working as a claims adjuster. I worked for two large firms
(Prudential Securities and AG Edwards), one smaller firm (H&R
Block Financial Services) and a brief stint at a bank. All of
those firms were purchased by larger corporations. In 2009 I
took my practice independent with the idea of not only helping
clients develop and maintain a financial plan but to do so
without any type of corporate agenda dictating which products
are used. As an independent, I have the ability to access many
different products and strategies previously unavailable and my
success is now completely aligned with the success of my
clients. My main focus is to create retirement plans that
cannot be outlived and to make sure that life-changing events
(such as job losses) do not destroy the end plan.
I currently reside in Florissant with my 6 year-old daughter and
5 year-old son. I also have a 21 year-old son living in the
Kansas City Area. I am looking forward to the opportunity to
help BBJ members avoid many of the financial mistakes I have
witnessed over my career while navigating a period of job
transition.
