I’m John Davis, and I founded JKD Financial to bridge the gap between two worlds that should never have been separated: financial planning and proactive tax strategy. Springfield, Missouri is my home, I'm a dad to two boys, and a firm believer that financial advice should be honest, transparent, and easy to understand. I’ve spent my career—since 2016—learning this industry from the ground up. I started in the back office of an independent firm, eventually moving into a lead advisor role before spent time at a large CPA firm. Along the way, I noticed a problem: most "wealth management" is missing a microscope. Advisors look at the big picture, and tax preparers look at the past, but very few people sit in the middle to look at the future impact of every dollar. As both a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and an IRS Enrolled Agent (EA), I provide that missing link. I don’t just build a portfolio; I audit the plan for tax efficiency—managing IRMAA thresholds, executing Roth conversions, and ensuring your retirement "buckets" are optimized for what you actually keep. I’ve built an intentionally small practice. I’m not interested in scaling a giant empire or managing a call center. I limit the number of families I serve so that I can provide the deep-dive service my clients deserve. I took the leap to start my own firm because I wanted to build something I’d be proud to show my sons. I wanted to prove that you can provide elite-level financial advice without hidden fees, confusing jargon, or the conflicts of interest found in traditional AUM models. How I Work: Flat-Fee: My pricing is transparent and based on the complexity of your life, not the size of your portfolio. Tax-Forward: We plan for April 15th all year long, not just in the spring. High-Touch: When you have a question, you get a direct line to me—not an associate or a generic inbox. If you’re a diligent saver looking for a proactive partner to navigate the transition into retirement, I’d love to see if we’re a good fit. Learn more at jkdfinancial.com
