When I left American Express Financial Advisors to establish my own financial planning firm in January 1997 (originally operating as “College Tuition Strategies”) - I had no idea it would run successfully for 26 years and be a blessing to multiple thousands of families and their college bound students.

It was a simple concept.  I had a few ideas about how the college process should be managed, and how the SAT and the ACT tested content could be presented in a way that would resonate with students - eventually culminating in a systematic approach to help families thread the retirement planning needle by reducing the rising cost of college (via sound financial planning & wealth management, good school selection, and effective test preparation).

It has been an incredible journey, but all paths come to an end.  

Jennifer and I have moved out to Los Angeles where I now serve as the Regional Vice President for Mercer Advisors (a return to my more traditional wealth advisor’s roots).

For over a year, I aggressively sought a buyer to carry on the CCP tradition, but I was unable to find one who had the passion for the material, talent to present it in a hallmark way, intellect to adapt and change with the tests, and the ability to commit to families in the same fashion.  

As such, I will be shuttering the site to new registrations.  The Online features of the site will be operational for existing clients through June 2024 (see “Student Sign In” link in the top right hand corner to log in).

I will remember you always.


Blessings & Farewell,
