Financial Advisor in Battle Creek, MI
Wealth management for Battle Creek families
Battle Creek built America's breakfast, and generations of local wealth were built alongside it. Today that legacy is more complicated: the Kellogg split into Kellanova and WK Kellogg Co left many households holding legacy 401(k)s, pensions, and company stock across two tickers — and real questions about what to do with them.
We work with Battle Creek families across that whole picture: cereal-industry retirees and their survivors, VA Medical Center and federal employees with TSP and FERS decisions, DENSO and Fort Custer manufacturing workers, Bronson Battle Creek clinicians, and FireKeepers employees — all about 15 minutes from our Marshall office.
About 15 minutes from our Marshall office via I-94. ZIP codes served: 49014, 49015, 49017, 49037.
Planning realities we know in Battle Creek
Kellogg-legacy retirement accounts
The Kellanova / WK Kellogg Co split scattered retirement savings across old plans, new plans, and concentrated company stock. We help you consolidate what should be consolidated, diversify what concentration built up, and coordinate the tax impact with a CPA on staff.
Federal employees: TSP, FERS, and the VA
The Battle Creek VA Medical Center and Hart–Dole–Inouye Federal Center employ thousands with a distinct system — TSP funds, FERS annuities, survivor elections, and special retirement timing rules. We help you fit those pieces into one income plan.
Manufacturing and shift-work households
DENSO and the Fort Custer Industrial Park anchor thousands of jobs with 401(k)s, overtime-heavy incomes, and early-retirement offers that deserve a second opinion before you sign.

Questions we hear from Battle Creek
I have old Kellogg retirement accounts. Can you help me sort them out?
Yes — this is one of the most common situations we see in Battle Creek. We inventory old plans and company stock across Kellanova and WK Kellogg Co, weigh rollover options and their tax consequences (including possible NUA treatment for company stock), and consolidate into one coherent plan.
Do you understand TSP and FERS?
We do. Federal retirement benefits work differently from private-sector plans, and decisions like survivor benefit elections and TSP withdrawal strategy are hard to undo. We help VA and Federal Center employees coordinate those choices with Social Security and outside savings.
Do I need to come to Marshall to work with you?
It's a 15-minute drive, and many Battle Creek clients do — but we also meet by phone and video, and can handle nearly everything remotely if that's easier for your schedule.
