Dawson Emond is a Chicago native who moved to Omaha in 2019 after serving in the Navy. He transitioned to financial services and came to Retire SMART in 2024. He thrives on assisting individuals and families seeking a smooth transition from working years to retirement success.

You can take the boy out of Chicago, but you can’t take the Chicago out of the boy. Dawson still roots for the Cubs in baseball and the Bears in football. If he’s not watching sports, he’s probably fishing or golfing. He also enjoys dining out, and has a passion for classic cars.
