I’m a theater kid turned wealth-builder who had to learn money the real-life way. I didn’t come into personal finance through Wall Street, day trading, or flipping houses. I wasn’t raised on Bloomberg, and I definitely didn’t picture myself in this world when I graduated college. In fact, my plan was to work backstage on Broadway.

Yes, I earned a business management master’s degree from Wake Forest, but that alone didn’t prepare me for a journey that included six-figures in student loan debt, medical bills, credit card balances, or even the $250 tow truck fee I let slide into collections. I’ve been underpaid, underemployed, and “subprime.” I started investing “late”. I’m an “asset underdog,” if you will. If any of that sounds familiar, then good because it means you’re in the right place.

Everything I’ve built — paying off $22,000 in consumer debt, buying my first property at age 29.983, and finally earning a six-figure income — I figured out stesp-by-step, mostly alone.

You don’t have to! You have me, and you have the Spent community.

My work is grounded in empathy, experience, and evidence-backed strategy. I create content and resources that help mid-career Millennials transform income, inheritances, and investments into protected, long-term assets as we all prepare for The Great Wealth Transfer with confidence instead of confusion.
