About Rodney
Biography
I am very passionate about helping my clients plan to avoid or fight the Long-Term-care (LTC) bullies and/or fires in their lives. You see as a young child I was influenced negatively by a bully and positively by a fire-fighting family.
In kindergarten, I was bullied by a classmate. I did not fight back because I was taught to walk away. After shooting me with a BB Gun, however, I was given permission to stand-up to the bully. I have been helping others stand-up to their actual or perceived LTC bullies for years.
Again, as a young child, I wanted to be a fire fighter to help people plan to protect their property from fire catastrophies in advance of a fire or to minimize the damage after the fire occurs. I don't actually fight the flame-throwing type of fires today, but I do help people to plan against LTC fires or to minimize the damages of such LTC fires after they occur.
