Working Together
Traditionally, the industry has been focused on helping men develop a financial plan. I work with successful women who are tired of an industry focused on providing planning, financial services, and strategies primarily aimed at men. I am a professional who is nonjudgmental, knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated to helping women design the lifestyle they deserve.
I offer personalized service and confidentiality. I educate women about financial concepts and products and take the confusion out of retirement strategies, insurance, estate conservation, and preserving wealth.
I understand the many challenges of retirement today and know the biggest concern for many women is outliving their money. I focus on money management, as well as other issues that are critical to women's financial well-being.
Wealth Management
My approach to wealth management is rooted in a deep commitment to understanding your individual goals, values, and financial situation. Whether you're planning for retirement, investing in your children's education, or growing your assets for the future, I am here to provide tailored solutions and strategic advice every step of the way.
Clients who engage in wealth management desire expertise in developing financial strategies to achieve their financial goals. I offer comprehensive asset management services designed to optimize your financial portfolio and help you achieve your long-term financial goals.
The services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client by providing personalized investment strategies and ongoing portfolio management.

Financial Planning
My approach to comprehensive financial planning goes beyond simply managing investments. I take a holistic view of your financial situation, considering all aspects of your life and financial goals.
Whether you're a successful woman transitioning from a divorce, have become a widow, planning for retirement, learning the nuances of saving and investing for the future, saving for your children's or grandchildren's education, buying or selling a home, starting a business, or planning for longevity, I am here to help.
Fundamental Financial Planning
Clients in this stage are newcomers to wealth creation and financial planning. Fundamental financial planning is about creating a roadmap to achieve your financial goals and secure your future. It involves assessing your current financial situation, setting achievable goals, and developing strategies to reach those goals. We work together to:
- Manage and eliminate Debt.
- Create a practical Spending Plan.
- Create a Risk Management and Insurance Plan.
- Develop Basic Investing and Retirement Strategies.
- Create a fundamental summary plan document (updated annually).
Clients receive a summary plan document that outlines the steps needed to achieve their financial goals. I collaborate with clients as their accountability partners to execute the strategies.
Semi-annual meetings provide valuable opportunities to review progress, address concerns, and adjust strategies.
A fundamental planning fee is required to engage the services and is paid by the client in two equal installments; a portion (50%) at engagement and the final portion at summary plan delivery (usually within 30 days).
The fee begins at $1,750 annually and will vary depending on the client's financial situation. The precise fee is established at the financial consultation/discovery session.
*Fees stated above are subject to change with notice.
Comprehensive Financial Planning
In transitioning from a fundamental financial plan to a comprehensive one, all services are elevated to encompass a broader scope and depth of analysis, ensuring a more robust and tailored approach to financial management. Each service involves:
- Tax-loss harvesting.
- Estate tax strategies.
- Wealth transfer strategies.

- Retirement account contributions.
- Tax-efficient withdrawal strategies.
- Detailed Cash Flow Management.

- Detailed Retirement analysis and income projections.
By integrating these services into a comprehensive financial plan, individuals receive a more holistic and tailored approach to financial management that addresses their unique circumstances, goals, and aspirations. This ensures a more robust and effective financial strategy for long-term financial well-being.
We meet quarterly to diligently review and update the plan, ensuring it remains current and aligned with their evolving financial goals and circumstances.
The annual financial planning fee begins at $3,750 for individuals and $5,000 for businesses and will vary depending on client's situation and complexity.
Clients who have one million dollars or more of assets under management with us receive comprehensive planning as a part of their engagement.
Half of the fee (50%) is payable upon engagement, the balance due at plan delivery-typically 30-45 days post engagement.
The precise fee is established at the financial consultation/discovery session.
*Fees listed above are subject to change with notice.
