Hi there! 👋 Allow me to introduce you to my firm, Wealth and Plan. First of all let's clear up the type of people that we do best work for: - High Earning Professionals and Families in Their 30's and 40's. __________ Now that we've got that out of the way, here's my best attempt at a "short" backstory: I decided to become a financial planner the day my parents were turned away by a financial advisor for not meeting the firm's underlying asset minimum. This led me to study Finance with a focus in personal financial planning at the University of Houston (Go Coogs!). While there, I ended up interning with the same company that turned my parents away... 🫠 After graduating college, I joined Merrill Lynch and hit my first crossroad: Do I go all in and become a financial advisor (at a young age of 22 😅), or do I learn the industry inside out before making the jump? __________ I chose the latter and invested the next 8 years split between Merrill Lynch, JPMorgan and a boutique financial planning firm, where I: - Became a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® - Served as the client service advisor for 300+ high and ultra-high net worth families - Served as the portfolio manager overlooking $200 million+ in client assets - Served as a financial planner, building 30+ comprehensive financial plans focused on retirement planning, investment planning, estate planning, and much more. __________ Then, in January 2026, I took a big leap of faith and left a steady paycheck, fully paid benefits, and a lucrative career that many dream of... In February 2026, Wealth and Plan was born with a simple goal in mind: - Make financial planning more approachable So, if you’re a young family or a professional in your 30’s or 40’s and think that finding a financial planner or advisor is a bit intimidating, we may be the right fit. We pride ourselves on three core values: - Education - Transparency - Real guidance WHILE you're building your wealth, not only after You can find a whole bunch more about us on our website: https://www.wealthandplan.com And, if you've made it this far and are unsure whether or not we’re the right firm for you, feel free to reach out!
