I’m passionate about planning. Your journey is unique and I can provide you with the customized financial plan you need so that you can concentrate on your family, health, and career. My expertise and familiarity with specific plans at local hi-tech companies gives me in-depth information to help you coordinate your financial life. My process is a combination of my experience and your goals. Together, we will focus on all areas of your plan including retirement savings and income planning, concentrated stock positions, tax-efficient investing, insurance, estate planning, and college savings.
As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and Chartered Retirement Planning CounselorSM with more than 15 years of experience, I pride myself in speaking plainly. I think educating you on your investments is vitally important for your peace of mind. I also believe it is imperative that your investments align with your values. For this reason, I work with traditional, alternative, and environmental and socially responsible ones when building your investment portfolio, if requested.
Not surprisingly, I use my planning skills outside of work to coordinate my children’s activities and travel itineraries for my family. I also enjoy breaking out of my Midwestern shell and exploring all the Pacific Northwest has to offer.

2020 Top Wealth Advisor Moms List: SHOOK™ Research considered Wealth Advisors who are mothers with children living at home and under the age of 21. Ranking algorithm is based on qualitative measures derived from telephone and in-person interviews and surveys: service models, investing process, client retention, industry experience, review of compliance records, firm nominations, etc.; and quantitative criteria, such as assets under management and revenue generated for their firms. Investment performance is not a criterion because client objectives and risk tolerances vary, and advisors rarely have audited performance reports. Rankings are based on the opinions of SHOOK Research, LLC. Neither SHOOK nor Working Mother receives compensation from the advisors or their firms in exchange for placement on a ranking. Research Summary (as of 3/31/2020): from a total universe of 300,000 advisors, based on our thresholds we received 32,350 nominations, of which approximately 20% (6,600) were women and less than a quarter (1,238) at the time were mothers with children under the age of 21 and living at home. A final list of the top 500 advisors was then compiled based upon the quantitative criteria. Raymond James is not affiliated with Working Mother or Shook Research, LLC.
