Before I started in financial planning, I was a general contractor. I saw too many people work themselves to exhaustion and retire with little to show for it. I wanted something better for my family and for others like us. Now, I work with families and business owners across California and throughout the United States to help them build plans that fit their real lives. My goal is to be someone you can call when things get complicated and to help you take the next step, no matter where you are starting from.

    {
      "id": "too-good-to-be-true",
      "question": "This sounds too good to be true",
      "answer": "Why it works (the legal backbone): Salary reduction is already well-established. Cafeteria plans under IRC §125 have been around since 1978. Millions of employees redirect pre-tax wages to pay for health insurance, FSAs, and dependent care accounts. EmployWell+ uses the same mechanism. Reimbursements are tax-free only if tied to medical care. Section 105(b) excludes reimbursements from income when they cover §213(d) medical expenses (doctor visits, mental health therapy, telehealth, prescriptions, etc.). FICA tax savings are real. When wages are redirected pre-tax, both employer and employee save 7.65% FICA/Medicare on that amount. That underpins the ~$700 per employee/year estimate (varies by wages and participation). Why it doesn't cross the IRS red line: The IRS has struck down plans that convert salary reductions into cash-like payouts (fixed indemnity per day, cash stipends, etc.) — those are taxable. EmployWell+ reimburses only actual or prearranged §213(d) medical benefits — not cash. Operates via a written §105 self-insured plan and §125 cafeteria plan, with substantiation and nondiscrimination controls. Where the limits are (why it's not too good to be true): Savings are capped by FICA exposure. Above the Social Security wage base, the 6.2% OASDI portion no longer applies. Only bona fide §213(d) medical expenses are eligible — not gyms, groceries, vacations, or general wellness. Nondiscrimination testing under §105(h)/§125 ensures highly compensated employees don't get disproportionate benefits.",
