Meet The Annuity Gal
15 years of helping retirees sleep better at night.
I’m an independent insurance broker who specializes in Fixed Indexed Annuities. Our Office is based on Ballantyne Corporate Place in Charlotte, NC. For more than 15 years, my promise has been simple: no games, no guesswork, and no lost retirement money.
Every strategy I recommend is built to protect principal first and participate in tried‑and‑true indexes like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq—never speculative bets that put your life savings at risk.
Book a 10‑minute introductory call to answer any questions and see if we are a fit to work together.
Our clients do not lose money in market downturns. If a strategy cannot protect your principal through bad markets, it doesn’t make it onto the table.
— The Annuity Gal, Fixed Indexed Annuity Specialist
From Wall Street noise to Main Street clarity.
Early in my career, I watched too many people do everything "right"—save diligently, invest faithfully—only to see decades of work shaken by market swings they couldn’t control or understand.
That never sat right with me. Retirement shouldn’t feel like a roulette wheel. It should feel like an income plan you can explain in a few sentences—and sleep soundly knowing it will be there when you need it.
That’s why we are dedicated to fixed indexed annuities—tools designed to protect principal while tying potential growth to major market indexes like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, with guardrails that keep your money from going backwards when the market does.

Our promise to you
Safety first. Always.
If you’re looking for risky picks or the “next hot thing,” I’m not your person. If you want a calm, clear plan that protects what you’ve built and creates reliable income, we’ll work well together.
- Your principal is protected from market losses.
- We only use established indexes like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq—no experimental strategies.
- No surprises: you will understand how your annuity works before you ever sign.
How I choose strategies
Before I recommend a contract, I stress-test it against real-world scenarios: past market downturns, inflation, income needs, and longevity. If it doesn’t hold up, it never reaches your kitchen table.
You’ll never be rushed into a decision. We want you to fully understand the Fixed Indexed Annuity before you fund.
Experience snapshot
What 15 years in fixed indexed annuities looks like.
Here’s how my practice evolved—and how that experience now serves you.
Years 1–5
Learning the landscape
I started inside large insurance companies, saw how traditional portfolios were built, and watched how volatility affected real retirements—not just charts.
Years 6–10
Choosing a different path
I focused on fixed indexed annuities, building strategies that locked in gains without exposing clients to full market downside.
Years 11–15+
Refining a proven process
Today, every client engagement follows a clear, educational process—from discovery to design to ongoing review—so you always know why your money is where it is.
Based in Ballantyne
