Life Insurance

  • An Indexed Universal Life (IUL) policy is a type of permanent life insurance that not only protects your family with a death benefit but also allows you to grow your money safely over time.

    With an IUL, your policy’s cash value can grow based on the performance of market indexes like the S&P 500. The best part? Even if the market goes down, your policy has a guaranteed floor (usually between 0% and 1%), meaning you will not lose money due to market drops.

    Here’s why many people choose an IUL:
    No market losses – only growth or staying flat
    Potential for higher returns compared to traditional universal life policies
    Flexible premium payments and death benefit options to adapt as your life changes
    Tax-free access to your cash value for retirement income, emergencies, or future opportunities

    However, it’s important to understand:
    Returns are capped, generally around 10%, so while you benefit from market growth, you don’t receive all of the market’s upside.
    Fees for IULs are higher than term life policies, but that’s because they do much more. Term Life is pure protection – if you pass away during the term, your beneficiaries receive the payout, but there is no cash value or additional benefits.

    In contrast, an IUL provides:
    Permanent lifetime coverage
    Cash value growth linked to market performance
    Flexible premium and benefit structures
    Professional policy management to track, invest, and credit your cash value
    Access to tax-deferred loans or withdrawals to support your financial goals.

    Overall, an IUL offers a powerful combination of protection and growth, giving you peace of mind knowing your family is protected while building a more secure financial future without the fear of market loss.

  • Why Choose Term Life Insurance?

    Term life insurance is one of the smartest and most affordable ways to protect your family’s financial future. It provides coverage for a set period – typically 10, 20, or 30 years – giving you peace of mind during the years your loved ones depend on you most.

    Affordable protection: Term life premiums are generally much lower than other types of life insurance, especially when you’re younger and healthier. This allows you to secure high coverage amounts at a budget-friendly price.

    Simple and straightforward: Term life is easy to understand. You choose the coverage amount and term length that fits your needs, and your family is protected if something happens to you within that time frame.

    Living benefits included: Many term life policies today offer additional living benefits that can provide financial support if you experience a critical, chronic, or terminal illness, helping you focus on recovery instead of bills.

    If you’re looking for cost-effective, reliable protection to replace your income, cover your mortgage, or ensure your family stays financially strong if the unexpected happens, term life insurance is a powerful choice.

My why story on why I got into life insurance.

When my mom passed away from dementia, she had planned for some of her funeral expenses. She paid for the grave site and the service, but there were still so many costs left – the flowers, her headstone with the dates, the police escort for the funeral procession, and all those little things that come up. She didn’t have life insurance, so I paid out of pocket.

I was lucky enough to afford it. But I remember thinking – what about the families who can’t? No one should have to feel that stress during one of the hardest moments of their life. No one should have to set up a GoFundMe just to bury a loved one.

That’s why I got into life insurance. To educate and help families be protected from those unexpected burdens. To make sure their worst day isn’t made even harder.

I’m a loving husband, a father of three amazing kids, and a US Army veteran. I believe in being 100% honest and transparent with my clients. To me, life insurance isn’t about sales. It’s about making sure families are cared for when they need it most, and that helps me sleep better at night.

That’s my why. And I’d be honored to help protect your family, too.  Feel Free to reach out to me if you have any questions or would like to put a life insurance policy in place for your loved one's future.
