One Mile Financial Planning, LLC

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).

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
