After seven years of in and around this industry (as a marketer, consultant, and content creator... but never an advisor) I decided to hang my shingle and start Stoneholt Wealth. We're a fee-only financial planning firm that's built exclusively for high-income millennial couples with kids (I have three kids under 5... it's a crazy time). We help our clients with career transitions, concentrated wealth, variable sales income, liquidity events, and all the little stuff in between--if you can call buying a home "little". We cover everything from income strategy to investments to tax planning to insurance review, all in the name of taking this very important responsibility off your plate, so you can focus on the stuff that makes life better.
