Joni Marie Preston

I believe financial planning should be practical, understandable, and tailored to each client's unique situation. Whether someone is preparing for retirement, growing a business, managing a company retirement plan, or navigating a major life transition, my goal is to simplify complex decisions and provide guidance they can feel confident acting on. As the founder of DeMull Financial, I take a comprehensive approach to planning that goes beyond investments alone. Financial decisions rarely happen in a vacuum, so I work with clients to coordinate the many moving pieces of their financial lives, including retirement, taxes, cash flow, risk management, and legacy planning. I am committed to building long-term relationships based on trust, transparency, and accountability. The most rewarding part of my work is helping clients gain clarity, reduce financial stress, and feel confident about their future. Outside of the office, I enjoy golfing, coaching youth athletics, and spending time with my family.
