Brad founded Seaside Wealth Management to provide comprehensive, unbiased financial planning that helps individuals, families, and small businesses gain clarity and confidence in retirement. He is passionate about guiding clients through the issues that impact their finances, helping them define their goals, and creating strategies that support lasting security.

After graduating from UCLA with a degree in History, Brad began his career on Wall Street. Disillusioned by the sales‑driven culture, he chose a different path, becoming a Firefighter in Orange County while pursuing his true calling in financial planning. For more than a decade, Brad balanced both careers before retiring from the fire service in 2014 to dedicate himself fully to helping others navigate retirement.

Brad is deeply involved in his community, having served on the Board of the San Diego Financial Planning Association, the Carlsbad Education Foundation, and the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA. He frequently volunteers his time teaching Retirement Planning Today courses at Mira Costa College and has held leadership roles with local education foundations and youth sports organizations.

A third‑generation Californian, Brad lives in Carlsbad with his wife, Vanessa, and their four children - Luke, Jake, Rebecca, and Catherine. Outside of work, he enjoys coaching baseball, skiing with his daughters, golfing with his wife, and catching sunrise surf sessions at Cardiff Reef.
