With over 20 years of experience as a financial advisor and banker, I specialize in translating complex financial concepts into clear, actionable learning for students of all levels. I hold an MBA in Finance from Rollins College and a BA in Business Administration/Finance from Furman University. I'm a Certified Financial Planner® with licenses in Series 65, Insurance 215, and Real Estate, which enrich both my subject matter expertise and teaching versatility.

My tutoring spans high school, college, and adult learners—from guiding students through AP-level economics to helping professionals understand portfolio design, technical analysis, and investment strategies. I draw from real-world experience managing portfolios for high-net-worth clients, conducting market research, and implementing strategies like mean-variance optimization, options-based hedging, and cash flow forecasting.

My teaching method combines Socratic questioning with tailored visual aids, financial modeling, and scenario analysis. I adapt to the student’s learning style—whether they prefer charts, dialogue, or hands-on problem-solving. I simplify jargon without diluting complexity, helping students build confidence through mastery. I'm passionate about empowering learners to see finance not just as numbers, but as a toolkit for building their future.

Let’s turn curiosity into capability, and complexity into clarity!

Approved Subjects

Real Estate

Real Estate

I bring hands-on experience from both residential and commercial real estate, including contract negotiation, listing and buyer representation, financing, and compliance with Florida-specific laws and disclosures. My understanding of capital structuring, title review, agency relationships, and escrow procedures allows me to break down the licensing material with clear, scenario-based teaching methods. By combining practical insight with academic grounding, I tailor instruction to aspiring agents and professionals looking for more than just memorization—preparing them to excel in both the exam and the field.
Series 65

Series 65

With over 20 years as a portfolio manager and Certified Financial Planner®, I’ve applied every concept on the Series 65 in live client scenarios—from asset allocation and retirement planning to ethics and regulatory compliance. I hold an MBA in Finance and Series 65 licensure, and I’ve built tools, trainings, and study guides tailored to adult learners and aspiring investment adviser representatives. My teaching blends real-world case modeling with Socratic questioning and visual tools that simplify complex ideas into actionable insight.
SIE Exam (Securities)

SIE Exam (Securities)

With over two decades as a portfolio manager, financial advisor, and loan officer, I’ve applied the core concepts covered in the SIE exam in real-world settings across banking, securities, and regulatory compliance. My MBA in Finance from Rollins College, combined with Series 65, 215 Insurance, and CFP® credentials, gives me a strong command of market structure, investment products, and industry ethics. I tailor my instruction to high schoolers, college students, and adult learners using visual aids, Socratic questioning, and scenario-based reinforcement to simplify exam topics and build lasting comprehension
