 Hi, I’m Aaron


I previously worked for the Tennessee Department of Revenue and now help Tennessee educators understand how their pension and retirement accounts actually fit together.


I’ve personally been in one of these same retirement plans, so I understand how confusing the options can be — and what actually matters when it comes to your income in retirement.


Most people I speak with say they wish they had looked at this sooner.

This is for Tennessee educators who: 


 • Have an Optional Retirement Plan (ORP) and want to understand how it translates into income


 • Have a TCRS pension and want to know what their monthly income could look like 


 • Have accounts (TIAA, CREF, Corebridge, VALIC, etc.) and want to see how everything fits together

What We’ll Cover

• What your monthly retirement income could look like

• How your pension and other retirement accounts work together (401k, 403b, 457, ORP)

• When you can realistically retire

•Whether you’re on track — or what to adjust

Your retirement isn’t just one number — it’s how everything works together. That’s what we’ll walk through.

No cost. No pressure. Just clarity.

Why Most Educators Haven’t Done This Yet:

• You chose your retirement plan during onboarding and haven’t revisited it 


• The system isn’t explained clearly 


• Multiple accounts make it hard to see the full picture
