Personal CFO to Professional Athletes
Creator of the Wealth Authority Framework
More than two decades in institutional finance, now spent helping athletes make better decisions with the money their careers generate.
An athlete's financial life fills up fast. An agent negotiating the contract. An accountant filing in multiple states. An attorney reviewing the deal. An advisor managing the portfolio. An insurance professional covering the risk.
Each one is doing their own job well. None of them is responsible for how the decisions fit together, what happens next, or who follows through.
That is the role of the Personal CFO — one seat accountable for the athlete's entire financial life, and for helping them decide across all of it.

A decision-making system for athletes. Three stages, in order, every time.
Why an athlete's earning window works unlike any other career, and what that math demands of the decisions made early.
Every specialist doing their job well, and still nobody holding the whole picture.
What actually happens to the first check, and the decisions nobody prepares you for.
The patterns that repeat across sports, leagues, and contract sizes.
Agents, family, advisors, and the people who appear after the signing. Who answers to whom.
The requests that start arriving after the first check, and how an athlete answers them without wrecking the relationships.
Planning the transition while the income is still arriving, so the change is a decision instead of a scramble.
What a second act looks like when it is designed rather than improvised.
Available in person and remote, with regular travel for team sessions, campus visits, and conferences.
