SMG'S FOUNDER

F4M_5812-Edit-Edit.jpg

In 2001, I made a decision to become an entrepreneur when it wasn't as popular as it is today. With my people skills, a degree in Pre-Law and a Master in Accounting & Financial Management, I launched SMG Consulting Group a full service business & financial consulting firm.

Through the company, I have helped people with bringing clarity to their business & financial visions, educated about financial literacy, tax planning & preparation, and helped many with starting, managing, and growing businesses.

My entrepreneurial and life path took this kid from the Bronx NY on a meaningful journey. I have been blessed by having both personal friends and worked with clients that are high end achievers. This exposed me to some insightful life perspectives and experiences, along with my own, that has been embedded within my business practices.

SMG Consulting Group and its team mission is to perform quality & informative business & financial services to our clients that ultimately contributes to economic empowerment, which leads to financial freedom.
