Welcome to the Echo Consulting
One of the top reasons people outlive their money in retirement is paying for long-term care. Devastation ensues if a proper plan is not put in place. Let’s work together to make sure your assets are protected in case long-term care is needed, and that you do not run out of money in retirement. If you are caring for a loved one that is already diagnosed and receiving, or in need of receiving care, it’s not too late! There are plans and strategies that we can put in place for them also.
I started as a Medicare insurance agent in 2008. I loved helping seniors understand health insurance, and I enjoyed going above and beyond solving problems that often fell outside the realm of Medicare.
Over time, my clients began to suffer from dementia, strokes, and Parkinson’s along with a host of other debilitating illnesses/diseases. As those diagnoses were brought to my attention, I would take out time in the evenings to try to help find solutions to many of my members biggest concern…. How will I (or my family) afford the cost of long-term care.
Fortunately, I was able to find invaluable information and solutions that the general public and families that were suffering never knew existed!
I soon realized that I had a knack for helping my members and their families in two particular areas: Long-Term Care Crisis planning/Asset protection planning and retirement income planning.
From that moment forward, I decided that I would dedicate my life to educating anyone that would listen about long-term care and showering them with the many ways that their biggest concern may be solved.
I look forward to helping you and your family.

The hospital, a judge, one of your children, a spouse, or a distant relative? And when do you think it would be the best time to complete the necessary documents to make sure that your wishes are granted, before something happens, or after when it’s too late?
We at Echo Consulting understand these are difficult questions to answer, but they are just a few of the important things you need to think about when filling out your Advanced Directive.
This is a document that will specify your wishes for medical treatment should you be unable to speak for yourself or maintain the mental capacity to make decisions regarding your physical well-being. This often includes a living will, a document in which you can stipulate how you would like your estate to be distributed amongst those who survive you.
