Website: https://fullcirclefinancialplanning.com/about-gina-hagen/ My experience helping family owned businesses in the beauty industry reach their goals is the foundation of knowledge I draw from to help individuals and families reach their financial goals. I am a career changer. I spent over 30 years as a CFO reviewing cash flows, tax planning, designing employee benefit plans, risk analysis and investment review. During my time working with hundreds of employees, I realized people are not making time for their financial planning and when they do they need help to make informed financial decisions. There is too much information on financial topics that people have analysis paralysis. Its not just about financial literacy its also about implementing this into their lives to be financially independent. I hold a CPA license yet still went back to school to sit for the Certified Financial Planning certificate. Holding a CFP license certifies that I want to provide clear transparent advice and have a fiduciary duty to put my client first. I do not sell any products, only objective guidance. I do not receive commissions or referral fees. I offer fee-only financial planning at a fee of $2,500, about 10 hours, or Investment management with an asset under management fee (this also comes with a financial plan) or ongoing financial planning charged quarterly. My personal hobbies include enjoying a competitive game of tennis with friends, skiing with my husband in every state, hiking in the local mountains, visiting our children and everyday walks with Lexi, our Vizsla.
