Michael (Mike) Smith
With more than 25 years of experience serving families, entrepreneurs, executives, and physicians, Mike Smith is dedicated to assisting retired and soon-to-be retired government employees in crafting robust retirement income plans, setting them up for continued financial security long after they leave the workforce.
With in-depth knowledge of the FERS pension program, federal health benefits, Medicare, and the Thrift Savings Plan, Mike considers himself an expert in “reading the fine print” and guiding pre-retirees through the complexities of these systems to secure optimal benefits.
Mike is an avid golfer, pool (billiards) enthusiast, and New Orleans Saints fan. You might spot him at a nearby park, food and wine tasting, or a local beachside watering hole enjoying a Maker’s Mark on the rocks.
