About

For the past sixteen years, Scott’s has been helping business owners, corporate executives, and retirees make the best decisions with regard to the accumulation and preservation of their wealth.

In addition to working with business owners, Scott has been fortunate enough to be able to work with many of the existing and retired employees of local businesses like Amgen, Anthem Blue Cross, UCLA Health, and many others.

Scott has taught personal finance courses to Conejo Valley high school students through the Junior Achievement non-profit organization. Continuing with his passion for education, Scott is an adjunct professor for California Lutheran University’s School of Management, where he teaches Financial Principles and Policiesand Corporate Finance to graduate students in the MBA program.
