Why The College Funding Coach?
“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” – Benjamin Franklin
After experiencing the financial pressure of putting ourselves through college, my wife and I understood firsthand how challenging the process can be. Time and time again, I heard from clients that college planning was one of their top financial concerns. I began searching for resources that could help—and that’s when I discovered The College Funding Coach®.
This program provided exactly what I was looking for: a community of experts with a mission to educate families and offer real, practical solutions. Partnering with The College Funding Coach has allowed me to expand the impact of my practice and help families navigate one of life’s most complex financial decisions with clarity and confidence.

A Little More About Steve
Background:
Steve began his career in corporate finance before making a purposeful career pivot, accepting a role with the federal government. That transition gave him time to reflect and recalibrate, ultimately leading him to personal finance with a dual focus: retirement planning for federal employees and college funding for families.
He quickly realized that both areas were underserved, and he set out to build a practice rooted in education, transparency, and actionable advice. Today, through Precision Vector Financial, Steve works to bridge the gap between complex financial systems and the real families trying to navigate them.

Community Involvement:
Steve and his family have been active supporters of The Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Campaign during the holiday season. He also finds time to contribute the “3 T’s”—Time, Talent, and Treasure—across various volunteer efforts. As a member of his local Chamber of Commerce, Steve values connection and collaboration in the communities he serves.
When He’s Not Working:
Steve lives in Southeast Michigan, the same region where he grew up. He enjoys seeing his children raised in the same neighborhoods and surrounded by many of the same families he’s known for years. When he’s not attending one of his kids’ many travel sports events, you’ll likely find him out on the golf course or hiking with the family’s golden doodle, Henry.
