Cesar Aran, CRPC®

First Vice President

"My passion for managing money first began when I was a young man working at a commercial bank, and I had the opportunity to advise and implement a downside protection strategy for the Investment Division of the bank also helping two members of the board with their investment portfolio. Later, when helping my uncle diversify his pension benefit to generate more consistent income, and after supporting my divorced mother adjust to reduced circumstances, it became clear that I would apply my education and experience to help people prepare for a more secure future for themselves, their loved ones, or organizational mission."
