Daniel Recalde

Neil is an advice-only financial planner, educator, and the founder of One Mile Financial Planning, an independent firm registered in Connecticut. Known throughout the profession as an outside-the-box thinker, he holds four advanced designations: CFP®, ChFC®, RICP®, and CLTC, and has collaborated with hundreds of financial planners across the country to resolve complex planning puzzles. His philosophy was forged on the Appalachian Trail, where fellow hikers gave him the trail name "One Mile!" after he helped others summit daunting climbs by focusing solely on the single mile directly in front of them. Neil applies that exact mindset to personal finance, challenging the wealth management status quo by eliminating sales bias, replacing 30-year projections with dynamic short-term roadmaps, and providing radical client access. Beyond financial planning, Neil brings over 19 years of mentorship and coaching experience; having coached soccer in both Italy and the United States, and serves on the executive board of the Connecticut Yankee Council (Scouting America). An Eagle Scout and avid outdoor endurance enthusiast, he is actively pursuing all 11 National Scenic Trails (1.22 completed) and 50 U.S. State Highpoints (16 summited).
