Convergence Financial

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.

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
