How Leah Brandt found a better way.

Leah Brandt’s 35+ years as a financial professional working in operations, sales, and marketing across financial services, retirement planning, and insurance taught her two key things:

1.

People deserve clear, unbiased insight when exploring annuities.

2.

There’s a better way to purchase annuities than the traditional sales-driven approach.

Leah set out to remove the industry bias and create a space where individuals can explore hundreds of annuity options with confidence. That’s why she founded AnnuityPath, a place where education comes first, and every recommendation is guided by your retirement goals.
