What This Newsletter Is About

Each week, I share two things:

  1. An in-depth exploration of a critical topic facing professionals today

  2. Curated articles and opportunities that matter for monetizing your expertise

My mission is simple: to show accomplished professionals how to create income streams that match their expertise, without exhausting side hustles or leaving their careers.

Who It's For

MonetizeSkills is designed for:

  • Experienced professionals ready to diversify beyond a single income source

  • People who see AI reshaping work and want to build financial options

  • Those seeking personalized paths, not generic advice

About Me

For 20 years, I built a traditional finance career, from Arthur Andersen to UBS to tech startup CFO. I checked all the boxes: CPA license, MBA, even a doctorate.

But I kept wondering why I was completely dependent on one income source when I had decades of valuable expertise.

So I started researching. Not casual googling, real research. I analyzed how professionals monetize expertise beyond traditional employment and mapped 30+ legitimate paths from advisory boards to expert networks to digital products.

Today, I run Career Insights Agency, where I publish market intelligence on professional income opportunities. Through MonetizeSkills, I share this intelligence with professionals at companies like McKinsey, Amazon, and JPMorgan.

My Promise to You

No generic advice. No get-rich-quick schemes. Just researched intelligence on how accomplished professionals create alternative income.
