My approach to financial guidance is rooted in a simple philosophy: precision, integrity, and stewardship. As a dual-specialist in financial services and technical craftsmanship, I understand that the smallest details often make the most significant difference in a long-term plan.

Professional Expertise & Training:

I hold the Fraternal Insurance Counselor Fellow (FICF) designation, representing an advanced level of expertise in helping families and business owners protect their legacies. This specialized training allows me to look beyond standard insurance products to provide faith-based, strategic guidance tailored to the unique needs of the Harrington community and clients throughout Maine.

A Disciplined Approach:

Beyond the world of finance, I am a dedicated gunsmith, Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL), and certified firearm instructor through Cedar Ridge Gunworks. This work requires an uncompromising commitment to safety, mechanical excellence, and meticulous attention to detail—the exact same traits I bring to my financial practice. Whether I am at the bench or the desk, my goal is to provide reliable, high-stakes solutions that my clients can depend on.

Service-First Mission:
Shively Strategic Financial Services was founded to give Maine families a partner who values service over sales. By integrating technical proficiency with a disciplined work ethic, I help my clients navigate complex financial landscapes with the same steady hand and focus required in the gunsmith’s shop.
