As a faith-filled parent, you want to make smart financial decisions that reflect your values, honor your priorities, and provide a secure foundation for your family. At WorthyNest®, I help parents like you bring clarity and confidence to finances so you can focus on what matters most. My love for personal finance started early—I was a middle schooler flipping through Money Magazine for fun. That passion led me to earn an accounting degree from Saint Louis University and spend years working with families at Deloitte Tax and Matter Family Office before founding WorthyNest®. Professionally, I’ve also written Redefining Family Wealth and launched the Beyond Budgets® podcast to help others approach financial stewardship with intention. On a personal level, my husband Bryan and I are raising three boys, which means I deeply understand the balancing act parents face when managing family life and finances. With over 20 years of experience, I specialize in helping parents like you align your finances with values through holistic financial planning and investing. Together, we’ll create a plan to meet today’s challenges while building a brighter future for your family.
