About
Hi, I'm Dr. Carlin. I still practice.
As a new vet, I picked my first clinic based on who had mentors. Then I saw how much more was possible beyond the W-2 paycheck: tax strategy, private investing, and building income of my own. Nobody teaches vets that.
So I built The Overqualified: the mentor and money guide I went looking for, for the vets coming up behind me.
