Interviews
As a personal finance speaker and writer, I appeared on Fox Business, ABC Morning News, and other national broadcasts. I have also appeared on local and national radio programs and written or contributed to dozens of print articles as a subject matter expert. I am comfortable discussing all topics related to personal finance and financial planning.
