I was born and raised in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and at 17, I began a lifelong commitment to service by joining the U. S. Navy. I spent the next 40 years as a Reserve Intelligence Officer and was called up to active duty after 9/11 several times to serve on the active side of the Navy. I retired proudly and honorably in 2011. While serving one weekend a month and two weeks a year on active duty, I also built a successful civilian career with Delta Air Lines, where I worked until my retirement in 2006.
In addition to my military and airline careers, I have spent the past 30 years as a licensed Registered Representative and Insurance Agent. My passion lies in helping individuals plan for a secure and fulfilling retirement. I specialize in straightforward, reliable strategies-focusing on growth and income using tools such as the S & P 500 and Fixed Indexed Annuities to help protect gains while ensuring long-term financial peace of mind.
I graduated from the University of Tennessee in 1976 with a BA in Public Administration and a minor in Economics. Later, I received a BBA in International Business from American InterContinental University. I also have an MBA in Finance from the University of Massachusetts.
I am happily married to Mary Pappas, and together we have five wonderful children and nine amazing grandchildren. We share a love for travel, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to work in or visit more than 90 countries around the world!
