Devising a Financial Plan That is Relevant & Specific

The finance world is continuously evolving, which is why it's imperative to have a relevant plan that is tailored for you and your lifestyle. We begin this process by both looking at your finances and understanding what your goals are.

Often clients can be nervous or skeptical about conversations regarding their finances. They might fear they will be judged, or we will talk over their heads or in an overly complicated manner. We prevent this by taking the time to get to know you, your aspirations and goals. This allows us to know you better on a personal level where we can better tailor your plan to the goals, values and concerns we've discovered. 

The best part of working with our clients is when they can see that we've listened to what they've told us, and we're able to put together a plan that takes it all into consideration.  

We stand by you, today, tomorrow, and always. 

Common Questions

How do you balance your own investment philosophy with your clients’ preferences and risk tolerance?       

           The clients get to decide as it’s their money.  While there can be some push-and-pull between what the clients want to do and what we think they ought to do, it’s not as common as you’d think. We try to focus on what the purpose or the goal is with any sum of money, educating them on how something works and discussing optionality along the way. Truly, it’s more of a collaborative process than a disagreement. 

How will your advisor-Client Relationship work? 

         It’s one of the first things we ask people when we begin an engagement: “What are your expectations? What are you hoping to get out of this meeting or this relationship?” Some clients come to us looking to execute a very specific need, some just have a lot of questions and don’t know what they want, and a lot of people need a coach to help them save more. I think the key is open and transparent communication. 

Do you aim to specialize in certain types of clienteles?   

        Yes, I love working with people who own small businesses or who are getting ready to retire in the near term. With these clients, there’s usually something immediate that requires their attention as well as a number of moving parts. 

How do you make your clients' financial plan relevant & specific to them individually?  

           It starts with asking a lot of good questions and listening before putting together a plan. When we do put them together, we like to show various scenarios and outcomes that are aligned with what the client has previously told me.
