I’m Beau Kemp, founder of Bugle Valley Retirement Income Planning. My career has been focused on helping people make thoughtful financial decisions, and I’ve developed a particular passion for helping clients navigate the transition from saving for retirement to actually living from their wealth. I believe retirement planning should be about more than simply determining whether you have “enough.” It should give you confidence in where you are, where you’re going, and how your financial decisions work together. Bugle Valley is a fee-only, flat-fee financial planning firm focused exclusively on retirement. I primarily work with people who are approaching or entering retirement and want a comprehensive plan for turning their assets into sustainable income. We look at the big picture, including investment strategy, taxes, Social Security, Medicare, withdrawal strategies, risk, and legacy considerations, to help clients make informed decisions throughout retirement. Outside of financial planning, I enjoy spending time outdoors, staying active, and most importantly, spending time with my family. Those experiences have shaped how I think about retirement planning: money is a tool that should ultimately support the life you want to live. My goal is to help clients navigate that transition with a clear plan and confidence in the path ahead.

I’m Paulo Lopes, an attorney-turned CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional and the founder of Woodmont Financial Partners. Most people I work with are DIY investors, high earners, and business owners who want a clear plan and an objective second set of eyes, without commissions or an asset-based fee. You should not have to hand over your investments to get good advice. My work is tax-aware and practical. We focus on the decisions that move the needle, including multi-year tax planning, withholding and estimated tax decisions, Roth conversion strategy, retirement and Social Security planning, stock options, RSUs, and other equity compensation planning, and estate planning coordination (beneficiaries, trusts, and POAs, plus the questions to take to your attorney). On the investment side, I help clients build a long-term allocation, improve tax efficiency, and set a rebalancing approach they can actually follow. I also help clients think through small business and real estate decisions where taxes and cash flow matter. We start with a short intro call. If we decide to work together, I will outline the scope, deliverables, and next steps in plain English. Meetings are virtual, with in-person options when it makes sense. I’m based in Arizona and work with clients nationwide.
