Our 5 Step Process
-
This is a no pressure 30 minute call to see if this is a good fit for BOTH of us! I’ll learn about your current situation and you’ll learn more about how I do things :)
-
If you move forward, I’ll gather the info I need to understand your income, savings, debt, retirement plans, and anything else that matters.
-
I’ll build a strategy around what matters most to you. Whether that’s buying a home, investing wisely, saving on taxes, or gaining clarity.
-
You’ll get clear next steps to implement a little bit at a time. If you’re using my investment management, I’ll set that up too. I’ll walk with you as you implement the plan and keep you accountable.
-
Life changes, and your plan can too. We’ll meet regularly and make updates along the way.

A quick call will help us figure that out. There’s no pressure or any commitment needed.

Nope! A lot of my clients are all over the country and we meet virtually.

Not at all! Although many advisors require a minimum amount of assets, I have no minimum. A lot of people come to me before ever opening their first investment account.
-
Being Fee-only means I don’t make commissions or get paid to sell you certain products. You pay me directly for advice and services and I do what’s best for you. This keeps everything transparent and you’ll know exactly what you’re paying for.

That’s what I’m here for. No judgement whatsoever, and I’ll explain things in a way you can understand.
