Our clients and community value us for both our personal approach as well as our background experience. Our clients are amazing but do not always have the time and energy to go it on their own. We help bridge family and business conversations, and align our clients paths with their intended priorities. We have backgrounds in institutional investments, and consulting financial advisors, but we are perpetually students as well as surrounding ourselves with amazing professional alliances to help support our clients and community in every way we can. Growing up, my parents were owners of a small business that did paving and excavation services. I was able to work summers and through college and miss operating equipment. Same time I saw many of their challenges through each stage of ownership. I love helping business owners and consultants bridge their investments and behavior in alignment with their prioritized goals and intent. Working at an institutional asset manager and broker dealer allowed me to spend countless hours with amazing financial professionals (advisors, portfolio managers, economists and strategists). There is alot to learn in good times, and even more to learn in challenging times. We try to bring a long term vision and healthy perspective to meetings where clients are the ones driving to their goals with the full support of our firm and every resource we have.

Most people come to me at a similar point in life: income has jumped, life has gotten complicated faster than anyone prepared them for, and they have no time to sort it out. That's where I come in. I'm a CFP® professional and financial advisor with Firebrand Wealth Management, a women-owned fee-only fiduciary RIA. Our firm serves women, their families & allies, along with people that our industry has traditionally overlooked. That's the work I care about. I'm also a first-generation professional, and many of the people I work with are building wealth without a foundation. That includes LGBTQ+ households. I mentor first-generation business students at Rutgers for the same reason. My clients typically fall under two buckets: - Physicians, from residency training through pre-retirement. Residents and fellows moving into attending roles, mid-career doctors weighing partnership decisions (e.g., private practice, private equity-backed, or non-profit), and attendings planning for their next step. Student loans and PSLF, contract review, retirement plans, estate planning, and asset protection. - Early-career professionals in tech, marketing, law, and consulting whose pay is complicated and who are making these calls for the first time. Equity compensation like RSUs and ISOs, tax planning, cash flow, and an investment strategy you can stick with.
