Hi, I’m Dwight. Thanks for stopping by. I am a CPA and fee-only financial advisor in Lafayette, Colorado, and I specialize in tax-efficient financial planning for retirees and those about to retire in Colorado or elsewhere in the United States. My clients are typically age 50 or older and have successfully launched their kids. They are either retired or planning to retire within the next five years or less.

They want comprehensive financial guidance—not just an investment salesperson—and need support as they approach one of the biggest financial transitions of their lives. They prefer to delegate the heavy lifting of investments, financial planning, and tax planning to a professional on an ongoing basis rather than seeking one-time projects. Just as important, they are genuinely nice people.
