Zar has worked in finance since 2001, and he holds life and health licenses in 8 states.

In fact, his passion is training and teaching, and he believes the biggest compliment he can receive is a client saying they completely understand their situation. “I’ve always worked with the mindset of a teacher. I love seeing clients have an ‘aha! moment’ and say they actually get how this all works,” he says.PDFS was created with the intent to help individuals and families to truly understand how to better grow and protect their assets.

At the end of the day, Zar goes home to his two sons. Whether they’re out on a course or challenging each other at TopGolf, it always brings them closer. His youngest son is also interested in cooking, a passion he inherited from Zar. Cooking his own meals also makes it easier to maintain his fitness goals. As a single father, he realized that he wanted nothing more than to be around to meet his grandchildren. Since heset off on a fitness journey, he now has a rigorous physical regimen with the goal of improving his health and maintaining a close relationship with his sons for as long as possible. He also leaps at any chance he gets to be outdoors, whether it’s hiking a local trail or spending time in the garage working on a project that calls for his building and mechanical skills.

Originally from Guyana, South America, he moved to Florida when he was 7 years old. Throughout his life, he has outlined his intentions with one simple sentence: “I want to use my blessings to be a blessing. I’ve learned to lend a helping hand to anyone who needs one,” Zar says. “Whether it be financially or otherwise, I’m proud to say that I’ve been able to change the lives of others, just as others have done for me.”
