I help retirees in Vancouver with:

  • Withdrawal strategies from IRAs, Roths and brokerage accounts to manage taxes and cash flow.

  • Investment alignment across accounts for tax efficiency.

  • Social Security claiming options based on your broader financial picture.

  • Estate planning review: ensuring beneficiary designations, trusts, and wills are properly structured.

  • Legacy and charitable giving plans, including qualified charitable distributions (QCDs).

  • Roth conversion planning to take advantage of low-income years or tax bracket gaps.

  • Team coordination with your CPA and attorney — no more chasing everyone down!
