Christopher leads a team that specializes in helping veterans use every Medicare benefit they earned, while protecting the VA health benefits and TRICARE for Life coverage they already count on.
The Story
Why Veterans
Christopher started helping seniors with Medicare in 2006. Twenty years later, the work is the same. Show people what they earned. Show them how to use it.
The veteran focus is personal. Christopher's father, Wallace, is an 82-year-old Vietnam-era veteran. Watching Dad navigate the VA, Medicare, and everything in between showed Christopher a pattern he now sees every single day. Veterans get Medicare advice built for civilians. The advice ignores the VA. It ignores TRICARE for Life. It ignores how a disability rating changes the math.
That is what We Speak Veteran® means. The team learns your world. The VA. TRICARE for Life. CHAMPVA. Priority groups. Disability ratings. You never have to translate your situation to someone who has never heard of it.
Veterans Advantage Financial® is independent and licensed in all 50 states. The team represents the companies you know and many you do not know. The job is simple to say and hard to do. Find the option that fits the veteran's county, the veteran's benefits, and the veteran's goals, and get out of pocket costs as low as possible. Medicare and VA benefits complement each other, and the team shows veterans how, without ever touching the VA benefits they already have.
Christopher graduated from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 1997 with a degree in history. The training stuck. If he presents something as fact, he backs it with the source. Page numbers. Federal statutes. The government's own handbook.
Away from work, Christopher reads to stay current on Medicare, veteran benefits, and retirement income. He embraces time with his wife and stays active in the community.
