Born and raised in Lodi, CA, I am married to Tracie and have two children, Declan and Daphne. Having been raised in a mid-sized business from childhood, my views and thought process is that of a business owner. I understand the challenges facing business owners in terms of marketing, promotion, determining who you are or want to be as a business, budgeting, providing employee benefits. I have consulted on three Sacramento based start-up business. While I myself have created and sold three insurance businesses’ and a 40-location route business. I currently have a investment management business , manage multiple rental properties as well as manage McCann Insurance and Consulting, an Insurance, Financial Education and Consulting business. As such, these life experiences give me a unique look at the creation and execution of business and the need for efficiency, planning, and measurability. This also allows me to view your situation in a different light.
Some ask how I attract, build, manage and educate my clients consisting of individuals, families and businesses. I do this mainly through workshops, seminars and referrals. I typically meet one on one to gather a general understanding of the needs and desires of the client, then based on that time together, I will put together a few options based on the clients situation. From there we discuss the pros and cons of each strategy and proceed to the implementation stage as directed by the client. From insurance to financial education services to other business consulting areas, I look to do what is in the clients best interest.
For the community at large, I provide work site and school site educational based presentations. I have taught students at San Joaquin Delta College in Stockton, CA, Modesto Junior College in Modesto, CA and Lodi Academy High School in Lodi, CA. I specifically taught on the topics of finance and insurance. These topics have ranged in complexity from an introduction and overview to specific and in-depth. Classes have covered multiple calculations in present value, future value, annuity payments, cash flow payments and other complex computations.
