My mother and father both served in the second world war. Dad was an artist and was never deployed overseas, instead the army used him to paint murals at military bases and he worked with a team that created realistic miniature 3D maps of Japan and Europe to use to train pilots when they flew missions. My mom worked in Europe with the red cross near the end of the war and after. Her first husband was in military espionage and died under questionable circumstances. A secret she kept for 50 years!
My son, Saulo, joined the Marines right after high school and served in Iraq during the battle for Fallujah. He is about to retire from 20 years in various branches of the armed forces.
I have been a licensed agent since 1973. Through the mid-70’s I worked full-time as an insurance agent for life and health. Following that time, I worked as a computer programmer, working my way up to senior software engineer. At the same time I kept up my insurance practice on a very limited basis.
In 1996, I decided to go back to the insurance business and this time start my own agency.
My practice includes reviewing and placing insurance plans for Life, Long Term Care and Annuities. I also work with people on their supplemental Medicare insurance. I maintain a series 65 license and am a registered investment advisor and a fiduciary.
I have an NSSA certification (National Social Security Association). I have been a featured educator on the topic of Social Security and Medicare for AAA Northeast. These workshops help retirees learn strategies to get the most out of Social Security retirement benefits and understand their Medicare health insurance options.
In order to continue to serve my clients I need to be aware of the constant changes in the field and get certified regularly to offer new product and services. I have lived in Danbury for over twenty years with my wife and children. I adopted 3 of my 4 children, including siblings from an orphanage in Brazil. I am active in my local church currently serving as treasurer of the Parish council. I am a member in good standing of Professional Connections Networking Group.
On my website it says: We often don’t think about insurance until it’s too late. My job is to get you and your loved ones protected beforehand.
