Bio

RETURNING CLIENTS: Reach out with needs; I'm back from maternity leave! Nice to meet you! I became a financial planner after I saw firsthand the impact that a couple adjustments could make in the trajectory of a person's financial future. In a previous life I was a Registered Nurse and I bring that trust and compassion into my work as a financial planner. I jumped into finance in 2018 and after a year of studying, I completed a two year apprenticeship in comprehensive financial planning, two seasons of tax prep, and worked closely with clients on everything from just getting started with investing to complex estate planning strategies. I launched my own firm in 2023 with a desire to focus on making conflict-free advice more accessible to the masses, and to incorporate my Christian faith more intricately into my work. I'm here to translate finance speak into the right decisions for YOUR life, account for your values and preferences, and ensure you're confident in your path forward.

Personal Stuff

I love the beach, black tea, and trying to get my 4 kids to smile at the camera - or even look at the same time. I try to keep up with three different book clubs (an uphill battle) and our straw bale garden (an intriguing science experiment). I can sing all the elements in the periodic table and can have a lively conversation about your finances just by looking at your (complete) tax returns.
