About Us

AD Capital originated from an idea to change how individuals and their families create and protect wealth. 

During the financial collapse of 2008 my family had money in "good hands" at Vanguard. As values crumbled and investment banks closed there was no phone call to simply say, "we know things are rocky, but we are working to protect you." Fast forward to Covid and the same scenario played out. I quickly learned that the "good hands" managing the money didn't care because they were making fees at the expense of so many. 

It was the above scenarios in conjunction with seeing my grandmother spend every dime she had worked for just to keep the government out of her assets that I made the decision to play by a different set of rules and give people an alternative to the traditional and very broken way of investing for their future. 

My goal with AD Capital is to give the average person/family access to real assets that provide real cash flow and real appreciation. Something tangible that best protects your hard-earned money, provides peace of mind, and can leave a legacy for generations to come. I can't do this without you though, and I look forward to partnering with you!
